The Raconteurs, Beck and M.I.A. among new Hove additions

by Kev Kharas [Edit this content] ▾ 0 comments 13:02 May 14th, 2008

More names have been added to the bill for this year’s Hove Festival.

The Raconteurs, M.I.A., Beck* and Goldfrapp will all be on Norway’s south coast this summer, joining the previously confirmed likes of Jay-Z* and **Babyshambles.

Not into that kind of thing? Possibly more exciting are the prospects of Les Savy Fav, *Crystal Castles, Wild Beasts, Animal Collective, *Black Lips and Deerhunter.

Peter Doherty or Bradford Cox? That Hove runs from the 23rd ‘til the 27th of June probably means that you won’t have to make that harrowing choice – five day weekend tickets are priced at around £180, details here.
