Camden Crawl 2007 Highlights

added 08 April 2008 at 15.51

Last year's Camden Crawl saw performances by Air Traffic, Calvin Harris, Friendly Fires, Cajun Dance Party, Pull Tiger Tail, New Young Pony Club and a whole lot more...

In it's eleventh year the 2007 Camden Crawl spread over two days and fifteen venues and encompassed performances by some 90 artists, 40 of which played on both nights giving festival goers a second chance to catch the hottest new acts they may have missed due to line up clashes and venue capacity limitations.

As always, the full line-up and stage times remained a closely guarded secret until each night.  Another feature was a heap of surprise guests who appeared at random times; the likes of Graham Coxon, Andrew Weatherall, Le Tigre and Supergrass on the list of those who made impromptu appearances.  Festival-goers are advised to arrive early so they don't miss out on such random gems.

John Kennedy of the esteemed X-Posure show on Xfm curated the nights at the Barfly venue with great success and is set to do this again in 2008.

Each ticket holder received an all-access wristband and double ‘CD programme’ featuring a track by each artist performing as well as guide map and timetable.
