i love gogol bordello, theyre definitely gaining popularity and i really think they deserve it, they are opening the door for a lot of gypsy-rock and balkan-rock bands. another great up and coming band is japanther,from brooklyn NY, they have the low-fi sound like the moldy peaches but much faster!

I really like the childballads. That's the new band with Stewart Lupton that used to be the singer in Jonathan Fire Eater
Pants Yell! are pretty cool too.

I saw Mistys big adventure when they supported jeff and the guys at te celler in oxford. Id never heard of them before that but they were very very good! I bought their cd 'the solar hi-fi system' and id recomend it highly though i cant quite compare to the live specticle of there show! Im still meaning to go to another of their gigs
if anyone is interested in hearing some of their tunes they have a myspace page here;

I saw misty's big adventure support the zutons back in 2004. i didnt really like them to be honest.
Dunno if it fits, but this is one of my fave band at the moment:

I don't know if this was for the whole tour, but when I saw Jeff, Grandmaster Gareth from Misty's Big Adventure was playing that weird electronic stick thing. I've listened to quite a bit of MBA since then and really loved it.
Giant Drag are a great new band, I've been into them for a while, so seeing them with Jeff was pretty special.
And Mystery Jets are great.

I believe Grandmaster Gareth has just released a solo album but I'm yet to hear it

He has indeed. I'm not sure how recent it is. I've heard a few songs on myspace and it was pretty good.
