More acts announced for Here Comes The Sun!

The second wave of acts coming to this year’s Here Comes The Sun festival is a veritable smorgasbord of talent, with something to please everyone.

We’ve got plenty of faces old and new back to grace the festival stages this year. Surf-guitar luchadores Horse Rock will once again be twanging their way into your hearts. We’ll also see return performances from surreal comics Starkey & The Moon Doctor  (of Madcap MOON SOUP fame) and the melodic folk-pop of the ed lofstedt assembly.

Plus, we've got a trio of acts who are no strangers to the centre making their festival debuts this year - the Rumpo Kidz, who’ll bring their own brand of shambolic cowboy songs, Readiophonics, a must-hear vocal harmony group that will wow you, and Deerful, who’ll deliver her trademark story-led poppy electronica.

As for brand-new faces, the powerful country voice of Nicole Allan will be making her Rising Sun debut, while studio-based project Station 61 will make their live debut anywhere at this year’s event!

And that’s not all – we’ve still got plenty more acts up our sleeves! It really is promising to be another fantastic, eclectic festival!

Don’t forget, you can book your tickets in advance (and save vs paying on the door) here

Hi Everyone

Hope you're "enjoying" the novelty of grey skies, rain and other things that many of us at Rising Sun HQ like to describe as "cricket weather".
