Blissfields is very pleased to unveil the first of this year’s acts for the four day event. Hampshire locals Frank Turner and Andy Burrows will top the bill at the award winning independent festival between June 30th and July 3rd 2011, with another headliner still to announce.
Frank Turner will be topping Saturday night’s bill following a sold out appearance at Brixton Academy to some 6,000 people and two nominations in the NME Awards, including one for Best Solo Artist.
With SixNationState headlining on Thursday night, and with former Razorlight member and I Am Arrows front-man Andy Burrows also billed, it’s a line-up that this year aims to champion local talent and celebrate those acts which have conquered every corner of the British Isles and beyond, bringing them back for the ultimate homecoming performances.
Previous years have seen Mumford & Sons, Laura Marling, Mystery Jets and Super Furry Animals play the event, but with the addition of Dub Pistols, Gold Panda and many more artists still to announce, including Friday Night’s Headliner, Blissfields Festival 2011 will boast its biggest and most varied music line-up yet.
With the return of the acclaimed Hidden Hedge and unveiling of the brand new Blisscotheque, which will feature the cream of local DJ talent and some very special guests courtesy of Future Disco, ravers will be uncovering treats at every turn, while younger visitors of the festival will also find a whole new world of wonders and treats in store.
