It’s that time of year again…for the M4Music festival. And ooh, there’s some goodies this year. My picks – Friendly Fires (UK), The Naked and Famous (NZ), Everything Everything (UK), Heidi Happy (CH), Alvin Zealot (CH), My Heart Belongs to Cecilia Winter (CH) and The bianca Story (CH). See the full music programme here.

There are also quite a few interesting workshops happening, as well as the usual Demotape Clinic.

I’m hoping that this year I’ll have a better m4m experience – last year I was hit with a sudden bout of food poisoning and had to leave just before These New Puritans came on stage…I knew I should have listened to that little voice inside my head telling me not to order the Spaghetti Vongole…!

Here’s a little taster of hot Kiwi group The Naked and Famous:

and Everything Everything:

and finally Switzerland’s own little girl on the prairie, Heidi Happy (just kidding):

The M4Music Festival 2011 takes place in Zurich and Neuchâtel this weekend 24-26th March 2011
