Suggestions For 2010 Line Up.

[zahidf]

Doves, hot chip, and super furry animals headlining.

Smaller bands, Delphic, Local Natives, Iliketrains, and British Sea Power.

I'd like to concur with Teenage Fanclub (new album out in April) and Martin Carr - excellent album Ye Gods (And Little Fishes) out last year. I'd also like to add Brakes but I'm buggered if I know where they are in this whole album related/play SSW post.

At the risk of breaking with the tradition of requesting wholly familiar old bands for the festival, two bands that would be great are Beach House, the US duo who will surely be huge once everyone realises how excellent their new album is, and Coventry's Don't Move!, who have an also excellent album out and could surely be persuaded to make the short trip up the motorway. If we're inviting more established turns back, then Luke Haines would get my vote.

Of course Doves are now at De Mont.

On the 29th of April.

[little car]

Not a big fan of theirs myself, and surely too expensive, but apparently Blur may be appearing at one or two festivals later this year. They go down well I'm sure at SSW but Glastonbury/Reading & Leeds seem more likely. Perhaps someone could twist their arm though. Their old Leicester labelmates seem a more likely bet for SSW.

I'd love to see the Nightingales on the bill myself. Still a great live band.

It's been said before and must be said again - Los Campesinos!

[stingo2001]

Looks like they listened to you

[sven mk 2]

Steve Mason please his new solo stuff is awesome.

[Marshall]

not sure if anyone has mentioned Twilight Sad (or indeed if I already have) but they would be absolutely perfect for the indoor stage or rising. they make such an amazing racket!

[Joe-]

Flogging Molly would be insane!

[Joe-]

Foals would be also incredible

Okay, last suggestion.

Jonsi, the singer of Sigur Ros' solo project. All I can say is that his music is breathtaking.

He'd be brilliant anywhere, If you're reading summer sundae staff

[vegetableman]

The Dust Collectors would be good. Rising Stage, maybe. So local they could cycle over!

Line-up looking good so far, although in a parallel universe it would include Bearsuit, Melt-Banana, Manu Chao and The Dodos and finish with a Half Man Half Biscuit singalong.

only playing two festivals this year, bestival and latitude.

[little car]

Looking at a few other festival line-ups, these are playing elsewhere this year and would be very welcome at SSW:

Pixies

Pavement

The xx

Shellac

Wire

Mission of Burma

Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions

Polvo

Bill Callahan

Twinkle Brothers

If we could avoid the bands that are on at the V festival that would also be great.

I'm just listening to the album by Admiral Fallow.... It's brilliant..... a bit like Elbow mixed in with Frightened Rabbit.... perfect Summer Sundae band..... get them before they get massive I say....

[SweepingTheNation]

I know it's probably too late for any concrete suggestions, but as they've got an album coming and are something of a live spectacle I'd just like to get down on here that I'd really like to see The Chap at SSW.

[SweepingTheNation]

Spectacular shot in the dark, especially this comparatively late, but Jens Lekman is in Europe in the first half of August.
