The Wonder Stuff to headline Blissfields

United Kingdom | | 15 January 2008

The Wonder Stuff have been announced one of the headliners at Blissfields, with many more also confirmed.

The indie favourites will perform on the Friday night at the festival’s new home of Matterly Bowl in Winchester, as it extends to a three-day event for the first time.

Taking place from 4-6 July, Blissfields will also be bigger in size, boosting its capacity to 4000 people.

Last year it won ‘Best Small Festival’ at the UK Festival Awards but according to organisers the increase in size won’t affect its charm.

In their words: “Blissfields is an intimate festival for all the family in the heart of the Hampshire countryside. This is a festival for people who want something as far removed from the big commercial festivals as you can get!”

Other acts just announced include Imperial Leisure, Subgiant, Modernaire, Pistola, The Jacks, Subsource, The Beat Maras, Andy Comley, Blisskrieg, Nathan"Flutbox" Lee, Captain Phoenix and Lazy Habits.

The Subliminal Girls, Chris TT, Ruth Theodore, Red Eye Banquet, Skuba and Life At The Pines will also be playing over the festival’s four stages, with many more due to be announced.
