Drowned in Sound here announces our own Drowned in Sound Stage at this year's Wireless Festival in Hyde Park, London town.
Sitting just beneath the main and second (or XFM if you like) stages, the DiS stage (in conjunction with Drowned in Sound Recordings) serves a purpose of promoting new, young and up and coming bands in the country. Many of which we've championed in these here virtual pages with gusto and aplomb. Though not entirely completed, here's a good idea of what's coming up over the three days (we're not doing the Basement Jaxx day, cos like, we're rubbish at dance).
The line ups are as follows: (running order TBC on all days)
Friday 24th June (New Order day)
Yeti Tegan And Sara The Boxer Rebellion Battle The Rogers Sisters Komakino
Wednesday 29th June (Keane day)
Martha Wainwright New Rhodes The Blue Van The Shore She Wants Revenge Special Needs
Thursday 30th June (Kasabian day)
JJ72 Apartment Mainline Cherubs Blackbud
You can buy tickets from www.ticketmaster.co.uk and an array of other usual ticket vendors.
