And of course the fabulous My Baby who I've seen several times and are definitely a great act to get your booty moving.

Yes these are both unmissable in my view, but also both potentially on elsewhere as well - I think My Baby played three times or more last time they visited! Well chuffed that they're back

They're on the main poster so I am really interested to see where they will be.

they can't be on one of the main stages surely. Although hell stage could be a shout.

They'd get away with sticking them on John Peel, I reckon

I read that as if you had just found out and were amazed at the lateness of PP and Blues.

Me too!

[mario man]

Cheers all for the recommendations - I shall be checking them out more but like the sound of Jain and Parcels on first listen.

One of my mates who is very much into this sort of stuff (far more than me) has just responded to me sending him the poster with 'Decent line up' - that's high praise coming from him, not easily pleased!

A friend has recommended Strong Asain Mothers to me, if I don't see them at Glasto I'll def be seeing them at Latitude

I saw them at By the Sea Festival last year. They're fun! They have a laugh with it, but some good tunes as well 

[home to you]

Only a handful on there for me this year - mainly Bicep, Jordan Rakei and Jamie Jones...

 

...but like most years, I probably won't even end up going into the SH area

My mates band Blue Lab Beats is on the line up. Really happy for them. Check their EP here: 

 

[Winslow Leach]

There's an awful lot of names on that poster that sound like things Jeremy and Super Hans would call their band.

[Brave Sir Robin]

One I'd picked up from the Spotify playlist that I might brave Silver Hayes for - a little like Morcheeba with added brass/Afrobeat:

Just added this to my Spotify and really enjoying it! Thanks for posting. I'll definitely be checking them out if there are no clashes.

The one thing guaranteed with the Silver Hayes line up drop is that it always kick starts everyones annual journeys of pre festival musical discovery as no one ever knows every name on that particular poster. I've already discovered some gems in the past few hours. The festival suddenly feels a lot closer!!!

Not a bad line up!!!

[Familiar2billions]

For anyone who likes a bit of upbeat tech house but is yet to hear Leon Vynehall, May i recommend starting on these two tracks of his. I saw him in The Stonebridge bar last year and the roof went off when he dropped House of Dupree... it was a really good party atmosphere throughout his set.

I'm with Ben, glad Talaboman are not in Silver Hayes. But fingers and dancing legs crossed that they'll appear somewhere else. Off to listen to that album again...

Nobody mentions Kraak & Smaak.

Dawn Penn may also be worth a look. I'm hoping these acts may play elsewhere over the course of the festival though to reduce the likelihood of clashes. All of them are West Holts worthy IMHO. My Baby played about a half dozen shows over the course of the 2015 festival including the Bandstand,  Hell Stage and the T&C crew bar. 

Ooo... I hadn't spotted My Baby. I like them.

No worries. Here's a mini documentary on them if you're interested:

I definitely have, cos i've just found some photos I took of her behind decks ... tho as it was at Homelands in 2000 - 17 years ago - and I was spangled, I've got no memory of it at all.

Awesome, we got any idea of a day or time or am I now asking something that has already been done ?

Kraak & Smaak are class. And I like their name. 

[Matt42]

Absolutely stellar lineup

[ian_sw]

In relation to Mike Skinner what type of music would he be playing??

Can vary alot, last time I seen him was jungle, garage and the odd streets songs, if it's skinner presents Tonga then it tends to be anything from any genre but alot more stuff to dance to

[BSH]

I think I could happily spend the duration of a festival at Silver Hayes alone with that lineup.

[the wonderwhy]

Alright so this JAIN song (which I like) sounds really similar to something I've heard before (I THINK Eurovision), but I can't quite put my finger on it... any help?
