Iceland’s Airwaves festival heads to East London

by Ashraf Dumile and kolombia [Edit this content] ▾ 3 comments 14:30 August 15th, 2008

You may well have heard of Iceland’s prodigal boutique festival Airwaves (hell, we were there last year and the year before) but thought that the idea of heading over Nordic Seas to see their stellar line-ups may have been just a bit too far from mother. So how about heading to East London to sample the festival spirit on September 19?

Celebrating their tenth anniversary, the one-day event takes place across Shoreditch, with eight venues (including 93 Feet East and Cargo) hosting performances from the likes of Metronomy through to Wild Beasts, with more acts to be announced in the coming weeks.

The full line-up currently includes:

Florence And The Machine
TheWhip
The Teenagers
Metronomy
These New Puritans
Poney Poney
David E. Sugar
Cazals
Autokratz
Crookers
thecocknbullkid
Dead Kids
James Yuill
Pnau
My Toys Like Me
Familiijen
Robots In Disguise
Wild Beasts
Pacific
Jerry Bouthier (Kitsune)
VV Brown
Sam Isaac
