Round Four of the Tarts Republic vote has been released! Which local band will open Apple Tarts Festival?

For the fourth Tarts Republic vote we asked which fine local band festival-goers wanted to see open Apple Tarts.  They had a choice of Project  Plenty, The Niltones or Riskee and the Ridicule,  and it was very close between the Plenty boys and The Niltones. 

We are dreadfully pleased to announce that the winner of what one person (paid by us) has described as ‘the single greatest opportunity in modern festivals’ is…The Niltones!  

They will be playing at 3pm in The Big Apple on the 3 rd June- we can’t wait!
