MAIN STAGE:
Elephant Stone
Montreal’s Elephant Stone was formed in 2009 by sitarist/bassist Rishi Dhir. As one of the most highly sought out sitar players in the psychedelic music scene, he has recorded and toured with the Black Angels, Brian Jonestown Massacre, the Horrors, the Soundtrack of Our Lives, and many more.

The Cosmic Dead
"The Cosmic Dead are four psychedelic warlords from Glasgow with a penchant for trippy, long-form grooves that summon the spirit of Komische legends such as Neu! and Can and the Space-Prog oscillations of Hawkwind, amongst other trance-inducing influences." - Phantom Channel

Telegram
Hailing from Caerphilly in Wales and London, four-piece Telegram blend psych-rock with art-pop and a hint of glam rock (which is no surprise considering two of the band members used to be in Proxy Music, a Roxy Music tribute band!). The Guardian, however, perhaps best sum them up, describing their sound as encompassing "Who power, Can groove, and Syd Barrett whimsy."

Triptides
Psychedelic four-piece from Los Angeles, California. Their music can be visual, a fuzz-warped haze suddenly giving way to a dream sequence soundtrack. Listeners may experience a melting sensation and positive vibrations.

Baba Naga
Baba Naga are shamen in a world where the existence of souls is denied. They offer worship for those who acknowledge the nihility of deities. Baba Naga offer stories in song, and give hopeless prayer to the people. The gods are dead, but the people need to worship something.
The music is a peregrination from desperation to despair, channelled into euphoric, psychedelic, pagan gloom.
The live show is moody, trippy, a sickening high without narcotics. Although the members of Baba Naga neither smoke the Devil's herb, nor ingest psyychotropic drugs, their doomy, shoegazey gigs are often described as making people feel as if they are stoned.

Death Valley Girls
Think of Death Valley Girls as an acid-tripping science experiment that’s been buried alive, and resurrected as a sexually liberated dystopian chain-gang. A cosmic scar, if you will, on the hills of Echo Park, where the experiment began in 2013 by proto-punk Bonnie Bloomgarden and guitarist Larry Schemel — who got lost in the desert, returned to their haunted garage in Echo Park, and pieced together their vision with shopworn images of sexploitation babes, a blood-soaked Iggy Pop, and Bloomgarden’s series of phantasms, the result of spending a year in a mental institution, where she planned her neon-glowing odyssey by listening to Black Sabbath and UFO, reading about alien conspiracy theories, and deriving her band’s moral compass from a line she saw in a movie:
“Everybody’s gotta be in a gang,” from campy sexploitation romp Switchblade Sisters (1975).

Desert Mountain Tribe
Desert Mountain Tribe is a psychedelic band from London who The band made a name for themselves in England with sizzling performances, sharing the stage with Wovenhand, Damo Suzuki and The Telescopes among others. The band makes grand, epic, sharp and properly English psych-rock, with an Oasis-attitude and a hint of Tame Impala.

The Eskimo Chain
The Eskimo Chain specialise in punk and garage infused pyschedelia. Not a band to be pigeon holed, their music is an energetic grapple between their sonic drone, melodic charm and punk sensibility, taking listeners on quite a journey. The band formed at the age of 16 in Margate; with eclectic music tastes expanding together, five years on their inspirations have broadened: from Syd Barrett to The Fall, from Spacemen 3 to The Stone Roses.

Eyre Llew
Eyre Llew (pronounced "Air-Loo") are a three-piece ambient rock band from Nottingham, UK. "...emotionally charged, atmospheric ambient soundscapes. Incredible ambient post-rock" - Fred Perry Subculture.

When the Sun Hits
Named after a Slowdive song (clearly), WTSH are a five piece shoegaze band from the midlands.

SPACE RITUAL STAGE:
Fighting Caravans
A tacky disco meets a Last-mile wake’…Fighting Caravans is an alternative-rock sextet from Leeds. Taking influences from early American Blues and more contemporary Rock music, the group delivers bold social commentaries akin to sounds of Fat White Family, Grinderman and QOTSA, with subtle Country, Jazz and Psychedelic overtones
https://soundcloud.com/
Crosa Rosa
Three piece alternative band, inspired by 60's surf, psychedelic…
"When it comes to fusing styles, Crosa Rosa excel ahead of their contemporaries with relative ease. Drenched in feedback and psychedelic noodling, the trio also exude with the demeanor of whimsical slackers , a scrum of scruffy haircuts and slouched shoulders - an intriguing combination" - Gigwise
https://
Strange Cages
"Strange Cages’ dark, primal sounds suggest a strict and pungent diet of psychedelic garage rock. Strange Cages could easily be filed between The Cramps and The Black Angels, with their sleazy, gritty vocals and snaking guitar lines" - Fred Perry Subculture
https://soundcloud.com/
The Goa Express
"As far as the bands like this go, The Goa Express are about the best you can do- very few bands deal out the Nuggets-worthy garage bangers in a way that feels this good but also this psyched out. Lancashire's Goa Express are a band you might just need in your life."
https://soundcloud.com/
Starwheel
Starwheel are a psychedelic rock outfit from the Midlands that utilise tremolo, feedback and noise to create phased out soundscapes. Drawing eclectic influence from both the 60s and the early 90s, the songs are a wall of sound punctuated by catchy melodies...

Unstable Journey
Unstable Journey is a psych/space/drone rock band formed in 2010 in Leeds, West Yorkshire. Starting life as a solo project for Ian Mitchell, and taking the name from Guided By Voices' album Vampire On Titus, he recorded 16 albums at home between 2008 & 2010.

Dusst
We welcome back Liverpool based band DUSST who played an early slot last year on the main stage. This time they will move over to the 'Space Ritual' stage for a later set. Channelling the likes of The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, Soft Machine and The Temptations, the quartet give their sound a contemporary makeover with seismic riffs and gallons of grooves.

Elephant
Sometimes life is too loud. We are too loud. 80's style with just a hint of garage rock. Delicious.
