Hinds, PUP, HÆLOS, and more added to this year's Bestival line up
Bestival 2016 has unveiled a fresh round of names, bolstering their new music quota with some hot new acts.
Hinds, Danny L Harle, PUP, HÆLOS, Sunflower Bean, Royce Wood Junior, The Japanese House, Girli, Clean Cut Kid, PC Music All Stars, and loads more are all playing the fest's Invaders Of The Future stage.
Speaking about the latest wave, organiser/curator Rob Da Bank says: “Yup, we all love a stonking big headliner at Bestival, and huge DJs and bands that have sold millions of records smashing it on our stages, but mostly where you’ll find me across the weekend at Bestival is in our Invaders stage checking out the new bands. Once more we’ve gone mentally diverse from Radio 1 and SXSW darling’s Danny L Harle, Pup and Sunflower Bean through the amazing Eska and a takeover from the hottest label out there, PC Music, to local island talent Born Ina Barn and Xockha. See you down the front!”
These latest names follow last week's bumper crop of additions, which featured WSTRN, Kano, Mura Masa, ODESZA, and lots of other enticing musical things.
Bestival 2016 takes place 8-11 September at Robin Hill Country Park on the Isle Of Wight. Tickets are on sale now.
