The Line of Best Fit
"How the hell are they not signed?" is the mantra at End of the Road Festival during Baywaves' set.
The largely unknown Spanish four-piece were winners of the festival's unsigned band competition and had the honour of being the opening act on End of the Road's first day.
Playing to a crowd they later admit to Best Fit is larger than anything they ever expected, the band's tight psych set defies the expectations of many present in the packed Tipi tent.
End of the Road continues tonight with performances from The Shins, Teleman, John Johanna and Yak.
