Standon Calling Festival 2010: Final Line-Up Announced!
Tuesday, 29 June 2010
Written by Matt Hamm
The final line-up announcement from Standon Calling festival brings the jam-packed weekend line-up close to 100 acts, as we welcome METRONOMY, BRITISH SEA POWER, JEFFREY LEWIS, STEVE MASON, ALICE RUSSELL, WILD BIRDS AND PEACEDRUMS (UK exclusive), TELEPATHE, THREE TRAPPED TIGERS, SLEEPY SUN, AND SO I WATCH YOU FROM AFAR, LONE WOLF, SWIMMING, and HARRY’S GYM to the bill for what promises to be a sensational mix of musical talent.
With three stages, numerous tents, secret areas and a nightclub in a cowshed, Standon Calling has developed a reputation for supporting the best new bands and DJs. Offering a platform to emerging artists, while giving festival-goers a chance to see their favourite bands in an intimate, sponsor-free setting, this year sees many hotly tipped and critically acclaimed performers take to the stage.
Standon Calling festival has much more than an “ear for talent” however; it is a true celebration of all that is imaginative and creative in contemporary culture. Top-quality music is played out across its stages against a backdrop of sheer inventiveness and escapism.
