One of our favourite festivals, Bestival on the Isle Of Wight, is back for another year of fancy dress and astounding lineups!
With 15 stages and a line-up already including The Cure, Pendulum, Primal Scream, PJ Harvey, Brian Wilson, Public Enemy, Mogwai, Kelis, Fatboy Slim and Groove Armada, curator Rob Da Bank has plenty of tricks up his sleeve to make this year the best yet!
Rob says: “‘So we have another teasing taster of what we’ve got to invade the island with come September! Watch out for Santigold, Johny Flynn and King Creosote & Jon Hopkins, some of my favourite live acts at the moment plus DJs Ed Banger boss Busy P, dubstep dons Joy Orbison, Mary Anne Hobbs and Loefah and our Prince Tribute expanding to a threesome playing the Purple ones greatest hits! One of the things I’m most excited about this year is going to be the Block Party – a Rio style carnival procession with floats funded, designed and created by you lot. Roll on September.”
Our fave-sounding new Bestival additions are The Ambient Forest to be hosted by Scroobious Pip… and also the Swamp Shack, a rundown Louisiana bayou juke joint, complete with Honky Tonk piano and many other random treats. I’m convinced that Radiohead are going to headline one of the nights too…
New additions:
LIVE: Santigold / Johnny Flynn / King Creosote & Jon Hopkins / Yuck / Mr. Motivator / SL2 live PA performing “On A Ragga Tip” + SL2 / Foreign Beggars / Dutch Uncles / Ulrich Schnauss / Alice Russell / The Secret Sisters / Mr B The Gentleman Rhymer / Young Rebel Set / Chris Read…with many more still to be announced! Mr Motivator kinda made it for us though!
