Kicking off the On The Up Festival on Thursday July 31 we've got a frighteningly good line-up, hand-picked by Time Out's Music team.

Avant-garde musician Klyman will start the evening with her brand of haunting pulse-pop, resembling Laurie Anderson fronting a re-imagined One Dove. Following 'The Melody' we've got Wave Machines, a group of emotional (but not emo) indie-disco scousers whose cowbell- and cheap synth-toting pop is the sort made by twee, Oxfam-clothed kids (very successfully) trying their hand at white funk… while wearing masks. Then headlining Thursday evening are Invasion, with loud and proud goblin-bothering retro-futurist metal from a band who describe themselves as ‘like a space diva on acid fronting a young, stoned Metallica playing Sleep songs too fast’.
