Summer Days Festival Announces Echo & The Bunnymen as Final Headliner
Many more big names join the line-up including Everything Everything, Circa Waves, The Lightning Seeds & Shed Seven
Summer Days – the UK’s newest boutique music and food festival – has unveiled its Saturday night headline act and a host of other artists across the weekend.
Topping the bill on the Saturday night and providing a spectacular finale for the inaugural Summer Days festival are iconic new wave rockers Echo & The Bunnymen. Having set the tone for UK alternative rock since 1980 with seminal albums including Crocodiles, Porcupine and Ocean Rain, along with hit singles The Cutter, The Killing Moon, Silver, Seven Seas and The Back of Love, Echo & The Bunnymen’s Summer Days climax is sure to be a highlight of the festival.
Also joining the Saturday line-up are avant-garde pop innovators Everything Everything, highly acclaimed upcoming indie-rockers Circa Waves, Ian Broudie’s legendary Lightning Seeds along with Britpop favourite and former Cast frontman John Power.
Freshly added to the Friday line-up headed by Jools Holland & His Rhythm and Blues Orchestra and Caro Emerald – are cult indie popsters Shed Seven, alt-dance maestros The Farm, the darkly humorous indie-dance crossover Space and former Special and original rude boy Neville Staple and his band.
Performing throughout the week is creator of the legendary Blitz Club DJ Rusty Egan.
