mixes Moulin Rouge with Mad Max - along with Dirty Little Rabbits, who a re also set to play the UK

Speaking about his appearance Taylor said: “I’m very excited to be a part of
this festival. It’ll be the first show of its kind I’ve ever done in the UK, and I think there are many fans who’ve
waited long enough to see it.
“It’s one of the greatest joys in the world to me [playing acoustic]
and I cannot wait to get over there and share that with the fans.”
Bohemia, which will be located between
the campsite and the main area, will kick off on Thursday afternoon to all ticket holders.
The arena will also
feature performances from The Chapman Family, Dinosaur Pile-Up, Fighting With Wire,
