personally i'm listing to a lot of Courtney Barnett and Kate Tempest, might not be your cup to tea but i'd be happy with more people in the world listening to either of them :)

I was about to say Kate Tempest so I will second that. I am Kloot are pretty good too. Swim Deep have SR next to them but I think there is a reasonably big chance that they will play and I really like them so I would defo recommend giving them a listen. Also, fairly certain Chromeo will play as they had to pull out last minute last year and said they were gutted and hoped to play this year instead... give them a listen if you don't know them because they are funkyyyyy!

I'm open to anything really. Already got Courtney on my Spotify list, and from what I've heard so far she's spot on. Will give Kate a listen on the way home in the car. Thank you!

Have you tried Brave Sir Robin's Spotify list?

It basically has 3-5 songs off every rumoured band in there, and is generally fantastic

I do love a bit of Chromeo, so I've already been on that like a dog on hot chips!

Speaking of hot chips, I can't wait to see Hot Chip again. Stalked them for years now.

Will definitely pop the others in my playlist too

Chances of getting our line up in the next couple of weeks is slim to none, so can anyone recommend any of the TBCs on the list that are a must to listen to in advance?

Father John Misty! May be a little weird but if you get into it, bloody hell, it's good.

Glasto 98

One lingering memory is going to bed with my legs utterly caked in mud. I had been wearing shorts and there was just no way to get clean. I woke at about 5a.m. in agony. The mud had dried and contracted to the point where it was pulling on every single one of my leg hairs. Trying to pull the mud off only resulted in further epilation. So, I had to get dressed and stumble out in the dawn light (the quietest I've ever seen the place) and trudge over to one of the taps for an early morning "leg shower". Then wet-legged and back to bed for another 5 hours or so.

Still, Tony Bennett was brilliant.

Not supported on my work PC, but will have a deeks when I get home. I've been stuck in a rut listening to the same stuff recently.

Also, I will trust anything with a Monty Python reference. Everytime I see Brave Sir Robin, I sing it in my head.

Thank you!

I'd always recommend The Maccabees to anybody. I know most people will probably have heard them in some passing form but I really would advise giving their third album 'Given To The Wild' a proper listen. Such a great album.

Being such a huge fan of theirs I always find it hard to gauge how popular they are and how widespread their listeners really are.

Don't know if they're 'lesser known' as such but The Maccabees are great :)

Yeah, I sort of forgot about the Maccabees for a long while (couldn't tell you why) but then got drunk at a mates a few months back and they popped up on shuffle and the love was rekindled!

Sharon Van Etten and The Maccabees have already been mentioned but both are great. I really like Alvvays album as well.

    • I'm just back from Primavera. A present from my wife for my BIG birthday. She presented it to me at the airport. I was expecting a week on a beach so was very pleasantly surprised. We stayed an extra few nights in the city to make a holiday of it.   Despite the rain on the first night literally making it a wash out, the rest of the festival was superb. Addison Rae was great, The Cure were the best I've ever seen them, The XX were the absolute stars (along with Gorillaz) and Pinkpantheress is surely going to be massive any day now. Sadly couldn't get anywhere near for Olivia Rodrigo's surprise set.   Sadly, very sadly in fact, Skrillex was about as enjoyable as a trip to the dentist. We lasted 30 minutes, and half of that was us pushing our way through the crowd to leave. I'm clearly not the target audience, but normally I can find some kind of redeeming feature in any kind of music. With Skrillex it just feels like someone's told a joke and everyone's laughing except me.
    • We’re heading down to Glastonbury hopefully next week so I’ll pack a peg😊
    • Absolutely loving the new one from Kurt Vile...been trying to decide on the new DCFC one since it came out. Not fully doing it for me yet though...
