C-14
Carbon 14, started life when Allan, Jim & Ken (later joined by Doug) met on a performing arts course. But they insist Carbon 14 is "no poncy stardom-by-numbers contrivance spawned by 90's kids from fame." Instead they pick up on phrases like, "classy alterna-rock"; Melody Maker's description of them.

Cain's Mark
Cain’s Mark are a three piece rock band who formed in the summer of 2000. The name derives from the mysterious mark of protection placed on Cain, Eve’s son, by God. Tom Duce (19, guitar / vocals), Trevor Saull (20, bass guitar) and Joel Warwick (20, drums) use this as part of the inspiration behind their honest, dark; but often uplifting brand of rock. Cain’s Mark are full of contrasts they manage to flow naturally from energetic and heavy outpourings to stripped down, but no less powerful, open and expressive melodies.

Cathy Burton
This creative 20-something pulls the stops out and serves up not only a voice and sound that are uniquely hers ... but also a blend of musical strength, spiritual depth and human frailty.

Cephas

Chris Roe
Chris Roe has been writing songs for many years and has had much of his work published. Previous recordings have generally been in the live guitar, bass and drums format however he has recently been working with dance producer Nathan Menlove to give some of his songs a more modern feel. He has also done some work with Vince Millett and Louis Counter aka Secret Archives of the Vatican at Broken Drum Studio. The outcome is a piece of work involving a dramatic mix of live instruments and hard and often experimental beats and textures, sometimes pop, sometimes hard electronica.

Christina Harrison
Splitting her time between the US and Europe, Christina Harrison received classical voice training and was one of the solo sopranos for travelling choir "The Centralaires". Her music these days reflects more of her Scottish roots along with a touch of country.

Chrysalis
Based in the Scottish Borders, Chrysalis fuse classical instruments (flute, oboe and sax) with celtic (highland and lowland pipes, bodhran, fiddle and Clarsach) and modern (keyboards) to produce a unique sound.

Cliff Richard

Coastal Dune
3 years ago stirring in the realms of academia in Durham, came together a band with eyes set on a higher prize than just degrees. Anthemic guitars, swirling synths and the electrifying vocals of Becky Drake were fused together. The end product has already swept two consecutive University Battle of the Bands competitions, two articles in the Guardian, radio play around the country and a hugely successful appearance on Channel 5.
