Describe in a Tweet:
And the award for best new band goes to....



What happened: A relatively new (to us, anyway) six-piece from Dublin open the second stage and instantly impress.

Crazy in Love: We're yet to be blown away by a new act this weekend, so thank heavens for Little Green Cars. Within moments of female vocalist Faye O'Rourke opening her mouth, we're won over. By the time four other vocalists join her in singing, we're properly signed up. Think Fleet Foxes, plugged in and a little noisier, or any of those Canadian acts we love so much. Think harmonies and proper old-skool hooks. Think.... just plain old good songs.



Why Don't You Love Me: They'll never be a real 'festival' act in that they didn't have much to say and don't exactly ooze charisma. This is a band for music fans though, for people who care not for banter and fancy hats.



Oxegen rating: 8/10
