Korean indie bands to rock Liverpool festival
South Korea will host a showcase of Korean indie rock bands during a large-scale international music festival in Britain next week, to help their advance to the European market, organizers said Monday.
Five teams will perform in the showcase, "Korean Stage in Liverpool," on Sunday, the last day of the three-day Liverpool Sound City festival, said the Korea Creative Content Agency and the Korean Cultural Center in Britain.

After performing in last year's showcase, the indie rock duo Dead Buttons signed a contract with a British record label to release a debut album in the country, they said.
Three of the five teams -- the Dead Buttons, Thirdstones and PATiENTS -- are set to give a pre-showcase concert at the Korean Cultural Center in London on Tuesday evening.
