Festival line-up update: Celtic Connections, LEAF, Freeze and more
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 17 October 2013
Um, so 2014’s sold-out Glastonbury has its first act, albeit by unofficial DIY-confirmation, which I suppose still counts. Bass pairing Stanton Warriors revealed earlier this week that they’d be back at Glasto next summer, adding it’ll be a nice way to celebrate the tenth anniversary since first they played the festival. Nice.
Whilst Stanton Warriors weren’t able to wait for official confirmation of their booking to be announced by the festival’s promoter, the new acts added to Bloodstock Open Air, Celtic Connections, Freeze Festival, HRH Prog and LEAF all have.
And they are:
