Matthew Edwards, Joss Cope and Anton Barbeau

Matthew 'Ted' Edwards has been making compelling music for decades, from his Birmingham roots to his San Francisco home. His second solo record, 'The Small Heath Book of the Dead,' is a homage to the Birmingham neighbourhood he grew up in and will be released by Too Good to be True records on September 4th.
Joss Cope was also born in the Midlands, but made his name in the Liverpool post-punk scene. Branching out into video and film, he's nevertheless stuck to his musical guns and has been a stalwart of indie music scene with his well-crafted tunes and songs.
Anton Barbeau is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter from Sacramento, California. Left-field tunes and surreal lyrics combine with a shrewd pop sense, and he has collaborated with many fine musicians including The Bevis Frond, XTC's Colin Moulding and several erstwhile members of Robyn Hitchock's band The Soft Boys.
