Next Big Thing full line-up announced; includes Lisa Mitchell

The complete line-up for HMV”s Next Big Thing winter festival (which I covered a few days ago) here in London has been announced, HERE.  Mystery Jets, Marina & The Diamonds and The Soft Pack appear to be the biggest names, while Rough Trade soul hopeful Rox also features.  I’m particularly pleased to see Aussie folk-pop chick Lisa Mitchell on the bill (Borderline, Weds 10 February).  Popular Down Under, she’s scarcely known here, despite a recent move to these shores.  That ought to change soon.

Check out the attached for a typically jangly, warm and well-written slice of Mitchell life.  Her voice is faintly reminiscent of Ellie Goulding, but with nicer arrangements and none of the electro trickery.  I wrote about Holly Throsby recently, and this is from the same cupboard of good stuff.
