Ah yes, just the festival news we needed to brighten up this rainy Tuesday.
Body & Soul have announced 50 additions to their 10th-anniversary festival lineup.
Garage rock group The Black Lips and fellow leftfield garage rockers Mashrou’ Leila join The Blaze and Princess Nokia on headline duties. Disco-punk group Confidence Man are a favourite of ours added.
Meanwhile, a small army of Irish acts have been added to the bill. Molly Sterling is there, as is TPM, Æ Mak, Junior Brother, Just Mustard, Happyalone. and so many more.
