Field Day 2010

Here’s a sneak preview of this year’s Field Day line up. From where we’re standing highlights look like downtempo techno maestro Pantha Du Prince and cult heroes Silver Apples. As ever with Field Day it’s a forward thinking kind of line up that grows on you, the more you find out about it. We’ll see you there in August.

HAPPY HUW YEAR - FRIDAY 22ND JAN

Frankie and the Heartstrings - Live
Swanton Bombs - Live
Islet - Live
Huw Stephens (DJ set)
Starting 2010 as he means to go on, Radio 1 new music DJ Huw Stephens brings the noise with three excellent new bands on this exclusive tour. Frankie and the Heartstrings are the Sunderland band who are turning heads and melting hearts with their debut single on the legendary Rough Trade label and a batch of live shows so wonderful they’ve rightly been tipped for huge things in 2010. Swanton Bombs release their debut album in the New Year after two limited edition singles and a tour with friends Girls. Cardiff’s Islet are one of the 2010’s must-see live bands. Their blend of mesmeric psychedelia has made them ones to watch in the NME and earned them a Radio 1 session.

Free Entry | 22.00 – 03.00

Three Whores Is Plenty

Those Kids Are Meatballs

Come dressed in your most multi-coloured square-tastic finery - don’t forget to mix it up like a Sir Mixalot megamix - we’re talking red and yellow and pink and green and orange and purple and blue… As every time that klaxon sounds you have to remove an item and swap it with the person next to you.

So… by the end of the night you are rockin’ it in one colour and one colour only.

Sounds simple? Sounds Messy? Sounds like a plan.

FREE ENTRY | Prizes for those rockin’ the best monotone outfits at 1am.
