What about FKA Twigs as an headliner would be something different. Her new songs are sounding great

Would be a dream for me but I reckon every festival will want her next year and EotR might be a bit low down her list.

There's always a big surprise with EOTR isnt there. I don't think anyone was expecting Bill Callahan, Vampire Weekend and Michael Kiwanuka in 2017, 2018 and 2019 respectively.

Saw Lazarus Kane a couple of nights ago at the Joiners. We need a late set in the Teepee for sure. Checkout  Narcissus.

A friend of a friend is in the band. I'll keep an ear out for any news.

Could Jenny Lewis make a return it's been a few years? 

Would love Fruitbats too! 

Scratch that she's in the US supporting Harry Styles over Eotr ?

Let's hope the bizarre decision by Q to name Michael Kiwanuka's drab performance as the best live show of the year doesn't mislead the bookers into thinking that's the way to go this year. 

I thought Kiwanuka was fantastic, and I'd love to see more soul music at EOTR. Durand Jones & The Indications would be a great bet.

Interesting how perceptions differ! I have agreed with a lot of your posts on here but I thought he was dull dull dull.

I didn't bother with his EotR set, but his new album has attracted such glowing reviews that I felt I ought to give it a go.

It's still not for me.

[Yoss]

In other news I've finally worked out who the singer from Fontaines DC reminds me of. It's John Parrott.

I think I'm predicting Angel Olsen / Big Thief / Caribou

Caribou has European dates announced the weekend before Green Man so he/they are much more likely to do that.

Would love Richard Dawson, Ezra Furman, Big Thief & (Sandy) Alex G back. 

Little Simz and Slowthai would also be great, partially just to mix it up a bit

Really struggle to imagine Big Thief as headliners. Not because they're not good enough or big enough, I just can't see them carrying the Woods stage given their lack of stage presence on the Garden and Tipi on previous visits.

[Guy Incognito]

Seeing the Purple Mountains album on that list makes me sad. They'd have been absolutely perfect at End Of The Road.

RIP David.

Big Thief announced for Poland and Netherlands festival in the first weekend of July, so with them already over in February-March I wonder if they'd really have two separate European visits two months apart.

I've been listening to this band called Black Belt Eagle Scout who would make a great Garden stage band, although they don't appear to have toured outside of the USA yet so may be too soon.

I think Sports Team will be a shoe-in for a Big Top slot...haven't seem them live personally but I hear they're great fun, and the kids sure love them.

I love the sound Black Belt Eagle Scout make - a random find for me and I thought I was the only person in the country who had heard of her, but yes she would be perfect at EOTR. She said on her Facebook that she is coming to the UK in 2020, but I don't know when or how big a tour.

Her album was listed on Pitchfork's 'best rock albums of 2019' so she's most likely gained a few fans in the past week or so.

[Guy Incognito]

Big no for Sports Team from me. Could see them doing it for sure but they do absolutely nothing for me personally.

[Guy Incognito]

I reckon there's a good chance that William Doyle will play EOTR 2020. Just a hunch.

[Nick07]

Wilco probably won’t play as their appearance at Black Deer is a South of England exclusive.

Angel Olsen makes sense to headline. Like to see Richard Dawson, Alex G, Duster, Modern Nature, Big Thief, Moon Duo and Omni play. 

When will first announcement be ?

I asked him on Instagram the other week and he said he'd love to, and surely he'd be in their plans as he's played before plus he seems to attend every year anyway.
