New names confirmed for Field Day include Astronomyy, Clarence Clarity, Honne, Rae Morris, Gaz Coombes, Eagulls, Ex Hex and Pale.
Field Day will be held at Hackney's Victoria Park, in the heart of East London on Saturday June 6th and Sunday June 7th.
Also confirmed for Field Day Saturday are global electronic collective Future Brown with their time-bending, space shrinking, glossy post-human sound, whose highly anticipated new album is out this week on Warp Records; as well as Soundcloud-famous Worcestershire electro-crooner Astronomyy. Meanwhile, We Are Shining, the British duo who have been in the studio with Kanye, collaborated with FKA Twigs and specialise in apocalyptic atmosphere with foreboding vocals, big beats and frantic electric guitar solos have also been confirmed, alongside hotly-tipped electronic band Hælos with their breathtaking vocal harmonies, and the brilliant radical funkateer Clarence Clarity, a kind of funky Ariel Pink.
Gaz Coombes, the exuberant frontman of Brit-pop band Supergrass, joins the Field Day Sunday line up, along with seminal shoe-gazers RIDE as headliners, as well as the iconic Patti Smith & her band (performing her 1975 groundbreaking album Horses), Savages, Mac DeMarco, amoingst others.
Leeds punk quintet Eagulls have become synonymous with a discontented, disillusioned kind of anger reflected in their self-titled critically acclaimed 2014 debut album, as well as their chaotic and confrontational live shows, going from early support slots with the likes of Iceage and Fucked Up to The Jesus and Mary Chain, Suede, Manic Street Preachers, as well as extensive tours in their own right. Also confirmed for Field Day's Sunday stage are Washington DC power trio Ex Hex, who make bold and brash punk meets glam rock, power pop, and enigmatic London duo Pale, who have been attracting global attention for their seductive melancholic sound.
