Every year London's Field Day announces its arrival with a great line-up. This year isn't going to be any different it seems, as they've revealed the next lot of acts who will play Victoria Park - which will hopefully be bathed in sunshine when the festival runs. Or...at least being a place where it doesn't rain. That'd be good.
Here's who they've got this time round:
About Group, Anna Calvi, Carl Craig, Casper C, Chad Valley, Chimes, Clock Opera, Connan Mockasin, Eat Your Own Ears DJs, Farnborough Concert Band Of The Royal British Legion, Faust, Givers, Glasser, Huw Stephens, James Blake, James Holden, Jamie xx, L-VIS 1990, Michael Mayer, Prizes, SBTRKT, The History Of Apple Pie, Tribes, Warpaint, Zola Jesus.
They join these already announced acts:
Actress, Ariels Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, Clock Opera, CocknBullKid, Ducktails, Electrelane, Factory Floor, Gruff Rhys, Hype Williams, Jamie Woon, John Cale, Konono No.1, Mark Kozelek, Matthew Dear, Mount Kimbie, Omar Souleyman, Oneohtrix Point Never, Pearson Sound, Roska, Sun Ra Arkestra, The Coral, The Horrors, Tortoise, Trophy Wife, Twin Shadow, Wild Beasts, Willy Mason.
Super, super stuff. This year's edition runs on Saturday August 6 in London's Victoria Park. Tickets appear to have gone up a little bit, but £39.50 for all of that (and then some more...) isn't such bad value. More information on it all can be found here.

it makes me angry
that a line up as good as that has to play in the 'quiet carriage' equivalent of london parks.
Move it to Hyde park. Invite Sting or something.
