Event information

Hopscotch is back for round 6 with another three infectiously good bands

Since Annie Mac labelled Cortes as one her ones to watch this year getting names as Radio X's Shock of The New, their riffs have been creating some serious waves. Cortes were named as the BBC Radio 1 Introducing Track of The Week recently and are going to Exeter to play their Big Weekend. They laid slay to The Great Escape in Brighton which means you can expect the tent at Boardmasters to be packed for this lot in the summer.

Special guests, London four piece SISTERAY have hit 2016 running. Their single 'A Wise Man Said', described by Phil Taggart on BBC Radio 1 as having a 'gnarly punk' sound, has also been played and supported on Radio X (evening playlist) BBC Radio 6 Music and BBC Introducing. Their determination to re-write the indie guitar rule book has seen them pop-up playing #guerillagigs and promoting their own club night Welcome To The Monkey House. With a well documented incendiary set at Camden Rocks Festival 2016 ★ SOLD OUT already under their belts they play the Jack Rocks This Feeling stage @ Official Isle of Wight Festival and The 1234 Festival over their summer.
"Sisteray, are not so much "emerging" as bursting out with tuneful attitude" The Zine

Flight Brigade hold a nice similarity to Arcade Fire, but with a sinister edge. They're off to play Glastonbury and Bestival this summer as well.
