eFestivals Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I don't think I'll be revealing any secrets if I say precisely eight West Holts acts have been announced so far. I don't know who those eight acts are tho, so feel free to take your pick from the announced names. Yes, some are obvious, but not all of them. (PS: I don't know with certainty, but i'm pretty sure that Protoje is not on West Holts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I'll start us off with: Santigold, Baaba Maal, EW&F, Sigur Ros, Lady Leshurr, Little Simz, NAO, Laura Mvula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Just posted in self-confirmed, but Rhoda Dakar (sings the Bodysnatchers) could be one for WH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 There'll be more than a few mellows harshed if she also sings The Boiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah ... you've missed two of the obvious with Kasai Washington and Ernest Ranglin. PS: I don't know with certainty they're on WH, but can't see them anywhere else. The same isn't true with some of what you've listed. Edited April 11, 2016 by eFestivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj_tim Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 If only 8 from the poster are on West Holts, I can't see Sigur Ros being one of them. I'd go with: Earth, Wind & Fire, Kamasi Washington, Ernest Ranglin, Santigold, Rokia Traore, Baaba Maal, NAO, Little Simz. I would have said Protoje if it wasn't for Neil thinking otherwise.

stocky3000 Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I would of thought Floating points would have been on there, but there are 8 acts I would place infront of him, hopefully he is on the park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theDandy Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I had Gregory Porter and maybe Ronnie Spector to be on there too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Floating Points on WH will be really good news, if that proves to be true. FWIW: Kamasi Washington, EWF, Ronnie Spector, Flo Po, Ernest Ranglin, Gregory Porter, Baaba Maal, & Rokia Traore would be my 8. Vince Staples, NAO and Santigold could all fit in there too, though.

CaledonianGonzo Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I suspect they might bump Gregory Porter up to the Pyramid... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a few acts in recent-ish years who've gone to the Pyramid via West Holts, and like you I think this is another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Ronnie Spector will be Pyramid, surely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 yeah Gregory Porter will definitely be on the Pyramid this year i'd have thought. seems unlikely they'd rebook him for West Holts a year later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Yeah I discounted Porter and Spector as I thought they'd both be on the Pyramid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBface Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Where are people placing James Blake? I know he's not a total fit for WH but he's ticked off Park and I thought JP was already busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
