Festival season may seem like a long way away on these grey winter mornings but for the organisers and eager ticket buyers, this is when things start getting real.
The Great Escape have invited us to “hear the future” and have announced the first one hundred and fifty acts of their 2015 lineup and it’s already looking like a real contender for one of the best festivals this year.
Marking its tenth anniversary, the festival returns to Brighton on 14th – 16th May with Alabama Shakes heading the charge so far this year after having played three years ago to a crowd of only four hundred. Alabama Shakes have certainly come a long way in the last few years and will take to The Great Escape’s Brighton Dome stage on the bill with hundreds of hot new acts such as Django Django, Slaves, Soak, Tobias Jesso Jr, Admiral Fallow and a host of other homegrown talent.
We are very happy to return to Brighton for The Great Escape. We had a blast last time. We just finished our new record and very excited to share it with the TGE audience.

In 2015, The Great Escape will be focussing on the huge wealth of British talent and the churches, pubs, streets, bandstands and other venues will run for the duration alongside what has become the UK’s biggest industry conference.
More info, tickets and delegate passes for the conference are available on The Great Escape website where you can also keep up with the latest additions to the lineup.
