Berkspur 2 Report post Posted January 7 John Prine is in London on 6th September. Would love to see him again. Maybe he could drag Jason Isbell and Amanda Shires along? Drifting into the realms of fantasy here. Saw Anna Calvi at Green Man last year. She was great. Would love Sharon Van Etten too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Avon 5 Report post Posted January 8 Be amazed if at least one of Calvi, Van Etten or Barnett aren't on the bill this year. The latter two would be Woods headline contenders and Anna Calvi would be high up the bill too considering she subbed Alabama Shakes & Grizzly Bear on Woods in 2012. You'd expect Aldous Harding will be back after having to pull out last year. Other names on tour in 2019 to throw intot he mix: Neko Case, Emmylou Harris, Rufus Wainwright, James Yorkston, EB The Younger, Villagers, Guided By Voices, Julia Jacklin, Let's Eat Grandma.

Guy Incognito 378 Report post Posted January 8 I also think Courtney Barnett will be there. We're also sure to get a big surprise like Vampire Weekend last year so I'm excited for who that might be. Could definitely see Van Etten headlining too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guy Incognito 378 Report post Posted January 8 Interestingly, EOTR posted this in the facebook event for 2019. I wonder if it contains some of the acts on the line up? It has Grimes, Deerhunter, Panda Bear, William Tyler, Sharon Van Etten among others https://pitchfork.com/features/lists-and-guides/the-33-albums-were-most-excited-for-in-2019/?mbid=social_facebook&utm_brand=p4k&utm_campaign=trueAnthem%3A+Trending+Content&utm_content=5c34042300bd470001a208b9&utm_medium=social&utm_social-type=owned&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwAR2fNnCDOZUjQ6Cfdc-OTzZD-EgN3Jc5ndKk7JxMRZ_M3DRAxX_Iikc-mHQ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Declan 28 Report post Posted January 8 1 hour ago, Avon said: Guided By Voices Can't see that. They're over in May/June time - first European gigs in 15 years. Given Bob Pollard's dislike of flying, I can't see them being here in September too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoss 12 Report post Posted January 8 I'd thought we might get Courtney Barnett last year but it seems a bit less likely this year. She's done two UK tours with the current album already and looks like she's got a busy enough season down under during their summer. Unless she manages to find some time in there to record some new material she'll be flogging a pretty tired horse by August. Won't mind if I'm wrong though. Be surprised if there aren't some names in common with that pitchfork article - Girlpool, say. Hopefully we'll get Stella Donnelly back already, she's got an album coming up and will be touring with band this time, and I'm going to say Pip Blom just because she / they have recently signed to Heavenly Records which gives them a decent chance of turning up sooner or later.

Guy Incognito 378 Report post Posted January 9 nah don't like this Ryan Adams talk. Sleater Kinney on the other hand... Let's hope St Vincent has put in a good word. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoebox 67 Report post Posted January 9 4 minutes ago, Declan said: That's a long time ago. But despite EOTR evolving from it's rather narrow musical remit of the early days, those "alt-country" behemoths of yesteryear are still VERY much "End of the Road material". Just look at the headline slots Bill Callahan and Jeff Tweedy have played in the past couple of years. I can certainly see him still having a place on the bill and I, for one, would be very happy with that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Declan 28 Report post Posted January 9 He's not in their league though. He's more of an aging Mac DeMarco and we know what a flop he was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Avon 5 Report post Posted January 9 You've opened up an interesting side debate there - artists who've appeared at earlier EOTRs who wouldn't fit the festival now. I suppose you've got people such as Richard Hawley or Mumford & Sons who've drifted too deeply into the maintstream to work in 2019. Anyone else? (I know this is the predictions thread but can't be arsed to start a new one). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also I hear Catfish and the Bottlemen played once. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GETOFFAMYLAWN 3,508 Report post Posted January 9 lol, that's funny if they had Mumfords and Catfish. How did they let that happen? Would really love to see Sleater-Kinney play, they're easily one of the best live bands I've ever watched. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vulnicuras 3 Report post Posted January 9 american football for thursday? any of sleater-kinney, first aid kit, father john misty, beach house would be ideal headliners. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Catfish played the Thursday one year when it was all unadvertised in advance - think it was a Communion Records deal. Mumfords played twice before their first album, I think the first time they also backed Laura Marling. Iain Archer played in 2009, then became a songwriter who works with Snow Patrol, Jake Bugg and James Bay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be surprised if she misses another festival summer, though, and also miss both EOTR and Green Man twice - were I them I'd offer a Milk! Records Tipi takeover, bringing Jen Cloher, Tiny Ruins, Loose Tooth etc over and maybe Katie Harkin as she's been playing in Barnett's band and is due to unveil her solo material soon. I'd love Sleater-Kinney but if they're only just starting in the studio I very much doubt they'd be ready to come over and reveal the new songs in time. I don't know how many would be headline size but Bon Iver, Spoon, TV On The Radio and Torres are all due albums this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
