    I don't think they've done enough since to get bumped up, feels like they were really really popular that year, especially with that King Krule song. I had that stuck in my head all year. 

    Are you thinking of Mount Kimbie? Mount Kimbie did the same slot the year before (2018).  Could potentially see either cropping up this year (or even Floating Points again) but maybe they’ll go for someone different for this year.

    If I had to predict, and for some reason I'm compelled to, I'd say:

    MOUNTAIN HEADLINE: The Smile, Gossip, Big Thief, Jesus & Mary Chain

    MOUNTAIN SUBS: Decemberists, Cat Power Sings Dylan, Ezra Collective

    FAR OUT HEADLINE: Yard Act, Osees, Blonde Redhead

    LATE FAR OUT HEADLINE: Soulwax/2manydjs (in the Bicep/Confidence Man slot), James Holden, Helena Hauff

    ALSO: Grandaddy, Corinne Bailey Rae, Nadine Shah, Superchunk, BC Camplight, Wednesday, Blondshell, The Mary Wallopers, Pigs x7, Los Bitchos, Crack Cloud, Bombino, Lonnie Holley, Ibibio Sound Machine, Protomartyr, Porridge Radio, Vagabon, Courting, Pip Blom, CVC (Walled Garden Thursday headliner), Lynks, bar italia, bdrmm, Heavenly (this year's surprise reformed band), Rozi Plain, Muireann Bradley, Personal Trainer, Divorce, Antony Szmierek, Panic Shack, Opus Kink, O., Hotline TNT, Shida Shahabi, Kara Jackson, Picture Parlour, Fabiana Palladino, MAN/WOMAN/CHAINSAW

    Gossip would be a weird/bad choice but maybe I could see it… feel like it won’t be them though personally. 

    Other stuff all looks likely, although I think/hope Beth Gibbons might pop up at Green Man. Holden did last year so won’t be there again obvs.

    Unless Big Thief are an exclusive to the PJ Harvey gig at gunnersbury park on the Sunday, I am surprised to not really see them prominent in the conversation for headliner for Friday or Saturday. They're big enough now and a very greenman act. 

    A glance at their five European dates this summer also suggests a number of gaps waiting to be filled (five days between their Oslo and Belgium gigs and four between Belgium and London). The greenman shaped hole is very much there. 

    Yeah I think they’re quite likely now it’s just people (like me) assumed they’d be at EOTR given they were booked to do the 2020 edition and haven’t been back yet. 

  4. Friday looking cool according to the speculative clashfinder:

    Elsy Wameyo > Ugly > Maple Glider > Debby Friday > Sanam > Mdou Moctar > ML Burch > Clarissa Connelly > Ichiko Aoba > Yo La Tengo. 

    I do think Ichiko Aoba would be on the Garden stage though not the Boat.

  5. YLT | Fever Ray | Lankum would be a great set of headliners for me.  Would probably skip Slowdive having seen them last year and probably again at Wide Awake this year.

    Acts I’d be extremely excited for would be Ichiko Aoba, Cornelius, Sanam, Richard Dawson, Blue Lake and Tara Clerkin Trio.

    Lots of others I’d be keen for like Jockstrap, Joanna Sternberg, Mdou Moctar, Sleater Kinney, Bonnie Prince Billy, Nourished by Time, Mary Lattimore, SLIFT, Water From Your Eyes and ML Buch.

    Lots to explore as well which is good. 

  6. If they can add Deathcrash, Backxwash, Billy Woods, Moor Mother, Lonnie Holley, Brighde Chaimbeul, Lost Girls/Jenny Hval, and some of the acts from the to be announced Supersonic festival that I’m sure will be fantastic then that would be 👌

  7. My initial take is that the top lines seem a lot better than last year but maybe the undercard isn’t quite as eclectic (potentially will change my view on undercard as there are some I’m not familiar with). 

    Slowdive, Fever Ray, Bonnie Prince Billy, Yo La Tengo, Sleater Kinney, Lankum, Jockstrap, Mdou Moctar, Richard Dawson, Cornelius all brilliant big names.

    From undercard my faves are: Sanam, Ichiko Aoba, Blue Lake, Tara Clerkin Trio, Joanna Sternberg, Mary Lattimore, Water From Your Eyes, Nourished by Time, ML Buch, Mui Zyu and Ugly.
