Some of these have been picked up already:

On the electro poppy side of things - Shura, Sigrid, She Drew the Gun

Singer songwriter type - Soak

Ibibio Sound Machine - bit of UK Afrobeat

My Baby - God knows what to class them as. Dutch blues / rock / freakout

Davos - does piano led-remixes of house classics, be a nice way to ease into Sunday morning

Dancey stuff - Leon Vynehall, George Fitzgerald

Williams Green - Saturday 1pm. Decent live too.

[The Martini Police]

Chelou. Greenpeace 12pm Sunday. Really good when I saw him a couple of weeks ago.

[Woffy]

I’m a bit of a sucker for Aurora’s Bjorky / Kate Bushy soaring balladry. That voice.

You're in for a treat! Lovely little tent in a nice part of the Green Fields. Usually associate it with more folky stuff but they do have a range of other stuff as well this year (playlist).

All solar powered as well I believe? Saw Michael eavis doing a singsong in there 2016

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Been hawking these guys for a few months now. Straight at the top of my must-see list:

Mentioned these in the surprise thread, but Eyre Llew are worth checking out if you're about early, 11am on John Peel. Massive sounding post-rock, caught em live a few times and they're really really good. Also playing the Earache stage at 4am as the sun comes up on the Monday, could be a real moment to end the weekend.

I am really liking the sound of Ama Lou, Park Stage Saturday....

In fact, if Doves get the TBA slot in the afternoon i will actually stay there all day....!

Mattiel, Love Unlimited Synth Orchestra, Kurt Vile, Kate Tempest... and of course Hot Chip.. (i will have to go for a curry during Sons of Kemet mind....)

[FuzzyDunlop]

Just from the name I checked these out. I am partial to a bit of punk in the right doses. They clash with Sheryl Crow, but I could be tempted to watch them if I am in the mood. 3pm Williams Green Friday.

[ourkid1984]

They've probably all been mentioned already but...

Squid

Amyl and the Sniffers

Lauran Hibberd

Buzzard buzzard buzzard

Sports team

[Saint northover]

Amyl and The Sniffers Williams Green 15.00. Cracking little band. Very punk. 

[Rubber Soldier]

Everyone thought Leftfield was too small, rabbit hole could be chaos!!

Every stage they’re playing is too small. Will need to be on the ball to get in for every set I reckon. 

[Ninety9]

Haelos are a little like The XX

Thank you for this...just listened to 5 tracks and just my cup of tea. Can't beat discovering new music ?

[Riggins]

Gonna stand by the fact this could be one of the sets of the weekend.

 

 

[FuzzyDunlop]

Im just listening to the Amyl and the Sniffers album.

If you like riff heavy 70s sounding punk, it's for you. Short tunes, to the point.

NME recently named them best live act in the world right now. Definitely on my list! Fantastic album too.
