Predictions for 2018

Green man ruled out king Gizz so predicting unknown mortal orchestra, soccer mommy, sunflower bean, superorganism and I know it's unlikely because of Green man but Grizzly Bear are my ideal announcement and they're not green man headliners so crossover could occur

If we get UMO, I'll be very happy. The mention of Young Fathers though is very exciting and plausible; they could be a stand-out performance.

Would love Phoebe Bridgers (I know she's at Green Man but if both her and Julien Baker were at EOTR...) and Soccer Mommy.

Other acts I wouldn't mind materialising:

Tom Misch
Gengahr
Annabel Allum
Moby would make for an interesting Adam Buxton podcast guest  - which is the most middle-class sentence I can think of
Editors
Twin Shadows
Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats - surely?
Nick Mulvey
tUnEyArDs
U.S. Girls
Night Beds

Young Fathers are at Electric Fields that same weekend which already shares a few acts so could definitely see us getting them. Would be an excellent Big Top headliner.

For me, Phoebe Bridgers would be a great addition, as would U.S. Girls, Titus Andronicus and Mitski

Not a great fan but The Orielles would seem a very EOTR type booking.

Hoping for Lucy Dacus to make a return.

Both would be great. The new Lucy Dacus album not quite as stunning as the first, but still good, with some great highlights. Will be seeing her at The Louisiana in Bristol in April. At the Crofters Rights last year she had about 10 in the audience, which I found shocking given her talent, but I was glad to be so close to the band!

yikes, Editors would be the death of EOTR

in all honesty, I only wrote them after scrolling through my Spotify "Release Radar" and recognising their name. All I remembered from listening to them years ago was how 'gloomy' they were. Just listened again and, yeah, they're shit.

Yep, any of those would be brilliant.

My highest of high hopes is that Feist is actually The Garden Stage headliner and in a twist, Bon Iver are headlining The Woods. They just postponed it until after his London dates. Near-impossible and it won't happen but that is my ideal announcement for this week.

Much more realistic bookings: White Reaper, Hinds and Milk Disco?

I say you're clutching straws but the hint last time was Yo la Tengo, I've heard good things about Titus but never listened, where's a good place to start? it's a good thing Car Seat Headrest isn't playing this year after their twitter scrap

Maybe so. I wouldn't have thought anything of the tweet if it wasn't for there being a Yo La Tengo hint last time.

The Monitor is probably the best place to start. I think it's where most of their current fans started. There's a chance the set will be completely different as the new album they put out the other day is quite far from that musically, but regardless I'd recommend checking out The Monitor.
