Having toured extensively in support of their 2012 release ‘Dead & Born & Grown’ including warming up Bon Iver in the UK and Ireland, it seems natural that they would find a home at the UK’s best known folk music festival. Also announced to date are Thea Gilmore, Emily Barker & The Red Clay Halo, The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band and Valerie June.
