We kick off 2012 with a special January evening in the company of A
Little Orchestra. The 12 strong orchestra, who made their debut performance
at HDIF Presents in March 2010, will be set up permanently on the stage,
and then bands or singers will join them, either for a full set, or
just a song or two. Throughout the evening, there will be full sets
from The Madrigals, Shirley Lee, Haiku Salut and A Little Orchestra
themselves, and guest songs by Simon from The Loves, Andy from Pocketbooks
and Matt and Sharon of A Fine Day For Sailing.
A Little Orchestra
A small London-based pop orchestra led by Monster Bobby of The Pipettes,
A Little Orchestra formed in February 2010 and played their debut gig
at HDIF Presents at Jamm. They've since collaborated with the likes
of Darren Hayman and Pocketbooks.

The Madrigals
A five piece from London, The Madrigals make music that is influenced
by traditional English folk music but sounds more like Electrelene and
Sufjan Stevens. "Every song is a new and exciting adventure with
banjos being swapped for violins, guitars for xylophones and accordians
and it is all very exciting," said Tasty Zine, which sounds good
to us.

Shirley Lee
We're very excited to be hosting another rare live appearance by Shirley
Lee, the frontman of indiepop/northern soul pioneers Spearmint. Shirley
will be performing solo, just him and his acoustic guitar, playing songs
from his debut solo album, which came out in 2009, and his second, "Winter
Autumn Summer Spring".

Haiku Salut
Easily our favourite new band of the year, this female trio were once
members of The Deirdres, but now make swoonsome instrumental music in
the vein of Yann Tierssen, early Mum, and Detektivbyran, featuring accordions,
banjos, xylophones and more.
