- Field Day Festival have unveiled the first round of names for this year's event, scheduled for August 6th at Victoria Park in London. As in previous years, the lineup is a somewhat artsy blend of rock, electronic and experimental music. Ghostly International poster boy Matthew Dear will make an appearance, along with indie favorites like Ariel Pink, The Horrors, avant-rock outfit Tortoise and Super Furry Animals member Gruff Rhys. A solid contingent of UK bass acts have been confirmed as well, including Actress, Roska, Mount Kimbie, and Pearson Sound (AKA Ramadanman). As for more left-field selections, you've got Oneohtrix Point Never, Konono No.1 and classic experimental jazz outfit Sun Ra Arkestra. Many more acts have yet to be announced.
