Upgrade: Field Day 20!!

Field Day announced the rest of their line-up a few weeks ago. It's hard to believe, but it's even better than the first half, with new acts including Mount Kimbie, James Blake, Jamie XX, Glasser, Michael Mayer and more. Even newcomers The History of Apple Pie are playing (shout-out to C & L!). Looks like this will be the summer of Field Day. Here are a few choice tracks from the newly announced acts.

Mount Kimbie - Before I Move Off



James Blake - CMYK



Jamie XX - Running



Glasser - Mirrorage



Michael Mayer - Funky Handicap



The History of Apple Pie - Live at New Slang

Field Day 20!!

Festival season is just around the corner. Okay, maybe not, but the thought of them is a welcome distraction from the miserable 'spring' weather we've been experiencing in London. Lovebox looks like a bust so far. Wireless is way too mainstream. SW4 could be interesting on the Sunday. But it looks like Field Day is the only London festival that's raised their game so far (not including the Arcade Fire pre-Canada Day party on June 30!). Here are a few of the acts I'm looking forward to seeing at Field Day on August 6:

Twin Shadow


Matthew Dear


Wild Beasts


John Cale
