Taunton may not seem the most rock 'n' roll place in the country, but it's where new young hopefuls The Locarnos hail from.

The latest band to headline Brighton's new Club NME night at The Brighton Coalition, they have already supported the likes of British Sea Power, The Cribs and The Metros on tour, despite having just left school.

On top of that they appeared on the BBC Introducing stage at this year's Glastonbury Festival, receiving tips from DJs Zane Lowe and Steve Lamacq.

Not bad for a band which started out as ten-year-olds performing Red Hot Chili Peppers covers. Support from The Lyrebirds.
