Glasgow's acclaimed Sons and Daughters, and Metronomy, are the latest in a long list of line-up additions for Scotland's Hinterland.

Sons and Daughters


Metronomy
They are joined be a host of new additions including Drums of Death, Eugene McGuinness, and hot production duo The Count & Sinden, who were behind one of last year's biggest club hits Beeper.

The latest confirmed acts also include Sky Larkin, The Answering Machine, Be a Familiar, Still Flyin', Black Sun, Little Man Tate, Stricken City, The Lovely Eggs, Sucioperro, The Invisible, The Lines, De Rosa, The Ray Summers, Desalvo, and These Monsters.

The line-up for the indoor festival is further bolstered by Dinosaur Pile Up, Panama Kings, Two Door Cinema Club, Plugs, Findo Gask, Y'all Is Fantasy Island, Rogues, Guanoman, and Sirens, Sirens.

Hinterland organiser Mike Oman said, "The addition of these artists really lays the foundation down for the festival. All of these artists are making huge noise in their own areas. Drums of Death have been seen on tour with Hot Chip and Peaches and Count and Sinden will be keeping everybody's clubbing fix topped up."

Hinterland is Glasgow's first single ticket multi-venue art and music event, which takes place on Thursday 30th April and Friday 1st May and will see over 80 bands playing in 15 venues across Glasgow over the two days.

The organisers are keen to ensure that around 50% of the final line-up is Scottish so that local talent gets showcased. Organisers are hoping to announce the first of a number of top-flight headline acts in the next few weeks.

The many acts confirmed so far include Micachu, 85 Bears, Brother Louis Collective, Come on Gang!, Fangs, Findo Gask, Hudson Mohawke, Isosceles, Lesser Panda, Pulled Apart By Horses, Tommy Reilly, The Xcerts, These Monsters, Three Trapped Tigers, We Were Promised Jetpacks, and Zoey Van Goey.
