After recent aberrations, it’s good to hear from a festival who’re looking to book a brighter bill – Triptych, the event running at venues in Glasgow, Aberdeen and Edinburgh from the 25th ‘til the 27th of April, have announced the list of acts they’ll be presenting this year.
Alas, this year will sadly be Triptych’s last. Which, considering the bill for this year’s T in the Park – which shares sponsors in Tennent’s Lager – makes a line-up that includes Dirty Projectors, The RZA, Flying Lotus, Errors, Four Tet and David Shrigley look even more necessary.
Tickets for the event are sold by the venue - this page finds room for details which DrownedinSound is either too time-pressed, idle or condensed to hold.
Including appearances from Mogwai, Aidan Moffat & Bill Wells, Bass Clef, Buraka Som Sistema and Clinic, the full line-up for the eighth and last Triptych is as follows:
