Suggestions for 2010

[Tmeister]

I'm liking Blind Pilot and The Cave Singers i hope these get to play

[SweepingTheNation]

Given Simon and Sofia always talk about it primarily being their favourite artists, maybe their top 20 albums of 2009 from the mailout will provide some clues:

1. The Low Anthem - Oh my God, Charlie Darwin

2. The Unthanks - Here's the Tender Coming

3. The Horrors - Primary Colours

4. Dan Auerbach - Keep it Hid

5. Lightning Dust - Infinite Light

6. Animal Collective- Merriweather Post Pavillion

7. Andrew Bird – Noble Beast

8. Dirty Projectors - Bitte Orca

9. Richard Hawley - True Love’s Gutter

10. White Denimin - Fits

11. Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest

12. Wilco - Wilco

13. Bill Callahan – Sometimes I Wish We Were an Eagle

14. Antony and the Johnsons – The Crying light

15. Cass McCombs - Catacombs

16. Mumford & Sons - Sigh No more

17. Evening Hymns - Spirit Guides

18. Forest Fire - Survival

19. Timber Timbre - Timber Timbre

20. Atlas Sounds - Logos

[Dave S]

I would put a tenner on the horrors playing.

[SweepingTheNation]

I dunno, Simon and Sofia were openly keen last year but given they played Bestival the day before pulling out claiming illness (a dud of a set, by all accounts) might give them second thoughts. Interesting to see the Unthanks in there, I can see them charming people in the Big Top.

[scutty]

-The Decemberists

-the snake the cross the crown

-all get out

-band of horses

-city and colour

-kevin devine

-sparrow and the workshop

-the weakerthans

All would fit well on the bill i think, would be good to see at least one of these

[DragKnuckles]

Just discovered We Are the Willows...worth a shot?

We Are The Willows Play in Crowd

[C3P0]

As long as a Midwestern American band is headlining, let's pull another:

Ryan Paul & THE ARDENT

Much to be heard from them live

YES! I was just going to suggest these guys. Great band, I'd love to see them there.

Definitely check them out if you haven't heard them.

[seadragon]

And here I thought I was being all cool with my suggestion.

Saw them with Daredevil Christopher Wright and Rock Plaza Central once.

Good times.

and these I think have been mentioned already or have played before, but I'd also love to see them

Daniel Johnston, Atlas Sound/Deerhunter, Blitzen Trapper, Woodpigeon, Shearwater, Tallest Man on Earth, Yo la tengo, Midlake, Boy Least Likely To (they were great last year), Iron & Wine, Bill Callahan, Kings of Convenience, Mark Lanegan/Isobel Campbell, Dept of Eagles, The Leisure Society, Fanfarlo, Bon Iver, Loney Dear, Peter Broderick

[C3P0]

haha I just read through the whole thread wondering if anyone would suggest them and then you did in the last post!

It's good to see Daredevil Christopher Wright on the line up too. I've got my ticket already and I'm chuffed with the bands announced yesterday, but if they added Ryan Paul & the Ardent and Woods/Woods Family Creeps too that'd be fantastic!

[jameshcwilson]

also, the Veils are a really really good live band. I'd recommend them too.

[undercover cop]

Hi Sofia

Line up is shaping up to be fantastic

Given that Black Mountain are signed up why not get the side project Blood Meridian to play too.? They are great -a bit more country dirge than BM. Their track Kick Up the Dust deserves to be an anthem of the festival.

I also recommend Sweet Baboo (friend of Cate Le Bon) who has had two very strong LPs out recently.

Please please please book the Brakes and if the Broken Family Band are truely broken; Singing Adams. The festival would not be the same without them.

I saw Ryan Paul and the Ardent a few months ago and they were fantastic.

I have good feeling that the lineup for this year will be really good.
