XFM's four day music rout: Dogs Die, Holiday Plan, Ambershades
afuture1 by Andrew Future January 9th, 2005
Glasswerk and London indie radio station XFM has announced "OUTBREAK" - a four-night festival of exciting new music at the Highbury Garage from 15th-18th February.

With the most cutting edge, exciting new acts playing Upstairs every night, the showcase event will be Downstairs on Friday 18th February, with a headline show from DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS and support from HAVEN and FANS OF KATE.

Off the back of a stunning debut album and a breathtaking last year or so, DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS rightfully headline the festival. Those who like it loud should look out for 3 CHILDREN OF FORTUNE and DIE SO FLUID, while hundreds will rock out to the likes of MOHAIR, THE HOLIDAY PLAN, STERANKO and CUJO. AMBERSHADES will play on the same night as THE REVS, one of the most exciting bands to come out of Ireland in recent times.

Tickets are available from the usual enemies.
