Tindersticks (pictured) will join Calexico to co-headline the Sunday night at End of the Road festival this year.

The Nottingham-born band lead a number of other men and women onto the bill, most notably to our eyes Let’s Wrestle, Pete and the Pirates - who along with Screaming Tea Party form a Stolen Recordings showcase – and Brakes.

Full list below:

Tindersticks
Brakes
Pete and the Pirates
Seabear
The Acorn
Mumford & Sons
Thinguma*jigSaw
Hush the Many
Let’s Wrestle
Screaming Tea Party
The Accidental

Tickets for the event, running from the 12th ‘til the 14th of September at Larmer Tree Gardens in North Dorset, still seem to be on sale – an adult weekend ticket will set you back £105. Full entrance details are available at the festival’s website.

I'll watch Calexico thanks

I think Tindersticks would send me to sleep if I was drinking.

Co?

What does "co-headline" mean? Are they on the same stage?

Tindersticks for me..

...in the event of a clash with Calexico. I am so fucking happy.

fuck

calexico. Somewhere along the line they've turned into Bon Jovi. Too slick by far last time. Total Mojo fodder... Bring on the 'sticks!

Amazing Line-up

Didn't know about Stolen showcase in there either!

Oh me oh my

I am so going to this. And I realise all those headliners are great but forget that - Darren and Jack Play Hefner! Mountain Goats! Wave Pictures!

Oh it is going to be great. Any other DiSsers [ew] going?

the pyramids (archie bronson side-project)

are playing too, according to myspazz. this alone makes me wanna go! wouldn't mind seeing dead meadow again either.

by co-headliner

It means they will share 'top billing', but both appear on the mainstage.....like Midlake and Yo La Tengo Last year....so it will be Dirty Three then Conor Oberst on Friday and Tindersticks then Calexico on Sunday....

...are you EVEN kidding?

I'm quite upset now.
I'd like to hear Bon Jovi (or hell, anyone else for that matter) turn out anything, ANYTHING that touches the absolute glorious awe and wonder of "All Systems Red".
