Saturday 23rd May 2009 @ Various Venues, Bristol

This May bank holiday sees Dot to Dot cruise back into Bristol for a fifth year of fantastic bands at fantastic venues having fantastic fun. Every venue in Bristol worth its salt will be hosting the kind of cutting edge indie, electro, pop, folk and rock that has seen Dot to Dot rise to become a real favourite on the city’s gigging calendar. An eclectic music festival for broad minded music and fun lovers, 2009 should be the best yet.
