This week ArcTanGent have announced their first wave of bands, due to appear at Fernhill Farm between 16-18th August.
For the first time since its inception the main stage will be open on Thursday, headlined by And So I Watch You From Afar.
The other names confirmed in this first announcement are GIRAFFES? GIRAFFES!, Pianos Become Teeth, Alpha Male Tea Party, Rolo Tomassi, Jamie Lenman, Foxing, Gallops, Talons, Bossk, Svalbard, Gulfer, Body Hound and GUG.
Festival promoter James Scarlett comments:
“We’ve spent the last few months curating some very special experiences for the ArcTanGent faithful…We’ve got GIRAFFES? GIRAFFES! playing their first ever European show, And So I Watch You From Afar performing their new album in it’s entirety for the first time and the madly bonkers idea to have Gallops playing a full band live set at the silent disco. Plus we’re very happy to have Big Scary Monsters and Holy Roar doing a Thursday takeover. I can’t breathe I’m so excited about all this and I can also confirm that we’ll be releasing our Friday & Saturday main stage headliners before long – they are BIG! ATG #6 is going to be the best one yet for sure!”
