2000trees' New Festival ArcTanGent Announces Headliners
So last year I made my first appearance at 2000trees festival; not in any sort of professional capacity but as that of the casual festival goer. Ill leave it to your own imaginations as to how that went and what that entailed, whilst saving your eyes from the truly scarring images of the state I left it in. Anyhow, I bring it up not just for one that it was a great festival line-up, atmosphere, crowd, fun, but for two because at the end of this summer the organisers of 2000trees, now having established 2000trees as an award winning and steadily growing live event, are heading on a new venture with ArcTanGent festival. Not to fear 2000trees fans, that is still going ahead, but this is no mere dalliance in a side-project of a festival this is excursion is the real deal. Having recently announced their second headliners, and numerous extra bands added to the bill, its clear that ArcTanGents debut festival is going to be the go to festival for fans of music of the more underground and alternative independent persuasion. Just look at the headliners 65daysofstatic and Fuck Buttons. http://youtu.be/WneDU-K3Sww http://youtu.be/q1zWZ7jl_pg Fuck Buttons are a rare entity live, but an immersively, impressive audio beast and with connection to Bristol, having been formed and basing themselves there, their headline slot is likely to be quite the homecoming. 65daysofstatic are an always impressive live act as well as on record, and having headlined last years 2000trees they were keen to work with its organisers again. So says Rob Jones of the band himself : we loved headlining 2000trees last year, so couldnt resist the chance to play at their new festival. The line-up looks incredible were very excited! Speaking of that line-up, take a look at it yourself at the bottom of this post, but just before you do consider this : tickets are on sale now at £59 and for that youll get two nights camping, four stages, over 70 bands & DJs and the best local food & drink. As promised by festival co-organiser Goc OCallaghan; weve done the research, and were pretty much the best priced festival out there. Its definitely great value. So from the bands and the organisers mouths themselves, it looks set to be a brilliant festival and perhaps the start of something great. Again, check out the line-up for yourselves and have a look into the festival too. We here at WhatCulture are going to be working alongside ArcTanGent in getting you the latest news on the festival beforehand, and well be set to review the festival for all those who dont make it.
