Third headliner could well be Massive Attack which were confirmed last year and had to cancel their show.

(They just confirmed to play at Opener on 05.07.)

[mellowmaniac]

Massive Attack are now confirmed for Cologne (28.06.) and Berlin (29.06). If they should be confirmed as headliner (like last year), the 30th is still free, but the routing Cologne-Berlin-Nijmegen isn't that good (500km additional KM compared to Berlin-Cologne-Nijmegen).

New (and actually amazing) confirmations for Down The Rabbit Hole:

Anderson.Paak & The Free Nationals (probably Saturday headliner), Fever Ray, Leon Bridges, MGMT, St. Vincent (who knows: perhaps also performing a couple of songs of their shared album with David Byrne), Curtis Harding, De Jeugd Van Tegenwoording, First Aid Kit, Jungle, The Breeders, Tom Misch, Wende, I-F, Joe Goddard (Hot Chip - live), Kokoko!, Moses Sumney, Muyayo Rif, Palmbomben II

Great announcement, quite a fantastic lineup you've got there! Would be happy if Anderson.Paak & The Free Nationals, MGMT, St. Vincent, First Aid Kit, The Breeders, Joe Goddard, Moses Sumney show up at Open'er

Looks as though Anderson Paak is headlining, which is quite remarkable. Good on him - I hope this bump up indicates they're expecting an album from him this year.

Oh looking at the description it promises an upcoming album featuring Chance, FlyLo and Schoolboy Q. That's cool.

A.Paak deserves the step up. Brilliant artist.

Last year looked so tasty and this year is looking pretty sweet. 

Definitely can't justify it but I'm close to looking into. Great line up and easy access to shrooms is very tempting.

Massive, stacked line up.

I feel like she's underselling herself on this tour- I don't think she should be as low as she is on the APE lineup either. Guess this is why I don't work in the business though  

Anyway, this is a lovely little lineup 

[Noeliam]

Great lineup for a smaller festival

i'd go see at least 4 from the last group!

anyone been to this before? whats the vibe/size? is there much late night stuff or does everything shut down after bands

[mellowmaniac]

Strangely from the Primavera announcement only Arctic Monkeys, Warpaint and John Maus are/will be confirmed for BKS today/in the upcoming announcement. That leaves a lot of possible additions for DTRH (or for later BKS announcements):

e.g.: A$ASP Rocky, Anna Von Hausswolff, Arca, Ariel Pink, Beach House, Belle And Sebastian, Car Seat Headrest, Charlotte Gainsboug, Dead Cross, Ezra Furman, Grizzly Bear, Haim, Hinds, Ibeyi, Johann Johannsson, Kero Kero Bonito, S U R V I V E / Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein, Lorde, Lykke Li, Mogwai, Peter Perrett, Public Service Broadcasting, Rhye, Sevdaliza, Shellac, Slowdive, Sparks, Spiritualized, Sylvan Esso, Vagabon, The War On Drugs, Wolf Parade.

About to pull the trigger on this one. Already doing BKS but really like this line up and the look of he festival.

Has anyone been?

Nice, this is out early!?

Looking forward to this one, not been before. Ordered one of the pre pitched tents for this recently too.

Clashes don't look too bad at first glance, will have a better look later

[arteet]

Anyone going to this??

Doesnt feel like that long since got back from Best Kept Secret!
