LOOPALLU 2010 – FIRST ACTS ANNOUNCED (02nd June 2010) |
|
|
|
The Loopallu festival returns for its sixth outing this September, and we’re very pleased to start unveiling the line up. |
|
|
|
Loopallu has consistently managed to deliver acts and line ups well beyond its tiny 2500 capacity and this year will be no exception, indeed we think it’s by far and away the strongest line up yet. |
|
|
|
With headliners still to be announced, we’re pleased in the meantime to unveil a long overdue visit from Scottish indie heroes, Idlewild.
|
|
|
|
Joining them and making their first ever festival appearance in the Highlands is Turin Brakes who are back on top form following the release of their 2010 critically acclaimed album ‘Outbursts’. |
|
|
|
Also confirmed are BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards ‘Best Live Act’ (2010) nominee The Bad Shepherds featuring comedian Adrian Edmondson, best known for playing Vyvyan in The Young Ones and also Eddie in Bottom. |
|
|
|
Local favourites and guaranteed to get the party started, The Vatersay Boys make a welcome and much requested return. |
|
|
|
Finally, bringing a touch of electronic/pop/folk are Silver Columns the new project of Johnny Lynch, better know as Pictish Trail and keyboard player in the Fence Collective.
|
|
|
|
