Electric Picnic’s Body & Soul area has announced the artists due to perform at this years’ festivals.
The B&S area has a well-won reputation for being one of Picnic’s more relaxing spaces, home to some of the most eclectic music offered throughout the weekend.
Californian folk artist Jessica Pratt is an excellent addition, her Quiet Signs LP really impressed us earlier this year. UK hip-hop artist Flohio is among the fastest rising talents this side of the Atlantic, check out her performance on COLORS.
The lineup also boasts some of our favourite homegrown talent. AE Mak, TPM, Ryan Vail & Elma Orkestra and Mango X Mathman are all super solid choices.
The announcement also includes the addition of a new stage into the area. The Sanctuary Stage, built around the Earthship Stage, will be a space for relaxation and contemplation. Drumming circles and outdoor gong banths plus more will all be on offer.
