Athlete and Soul II Soul for New Festival
The 'Big Feastival' has a bit of a food focus - as you might imagine....
The "festival with a heart" is in aid of The Prince's Trust and the Jamie Oliver foundation.
The line-up so far:
FRIDAY:
Soul II Soul featuring Caron Wheeler
New Young Pony Club
Norman Jay Good Times
Danny Rampling
SATURDAY:
The Charlatans
The Mystery Jets
Kurran & The Wolfnotes
SUNDAY:
Athlete
Oh and there's going to be lots of food stuff too, unsurprisingly, from some of the country's top chefs.
Charlatans lead singer Tim Burgess got a bit poetic when talking about it.
‘You can’t really argue with Shakespeare and he said that music is the food of love, so there’s always been a link between the two," he said, continuing. "Festivals were often known for their dodgy burger vans and some gigs were a bit ‘chicken in a basket’, so it’s good to redress the balance and have great bands and fantastic food in the same place."
The Big Feastival takes place July 1 - 3 on Clapham Common.
The money raised will go towards helping change the lives of disadvantaged young people.
