The Boomtown Rats – Villagers – Parquet Courts
The Staves – MS MR – Shamir – Mano Le Tough – Le Galaxie – Son Lux
Jape – Girlpool – Little Hours – The Lost Brothers – Here We Go Magic – Thomston
Declan McKenna – Tom Misch – Bry – Legend – Yurodny – Dublin Gospel Choir
Despite the Electric Picnic being sold out, the above 21 acts have been added to the lineup for the Stradbally festival from 4th to the 6th of September.
Though I’m sure Shamir was announced already, I urge you to see him as he’s great fun live as I found out in Brighton a few months back, as he topped the 10 best bands I saw at The Great Escape.
Excited to see Girlpool in there too, and will be checking out the rising UK talent Declan McKenna. The full lineup is beloq.
