Camp Bestival has delved into the 80s to find a few things....
They've lined up Heaven 17, The Proclaimers, and Nik Kershaw, and the press release says in such perfect style...
Contemplating the merits of the mullet, Rob da Bank says: "As a child of the 80s I love that era. One hit wonders sit happily alongside some of the most visionary pop and electronic records ever made in my record collection. Heaven 17 fall into that latter category and still kill it wherever they go so I cant wait to see and more importantly hear them at Camp Besti. The Proclaimers are an incredible festival act for a good old sing-along and Nik Kershaw is a boyhood idol too. Wrap it all up with Barry Peters and his Cuban Brother friends hosting an 80s night and its time for some serious leg warmers, rah rah skirts and fingerless lace glove action...well thats what Ill be wearing anyway!".Also newly confirmed are 'The Cuban Brothers present' Barry Peters featuring special guests (as mentioned above), as well as Sam Lee & Friends, Molotov Jukebox, Ady Suleiman, Hudson Taylor, Lloyd Yates, and Isaiah Dreads.
