A rather special something has been announced by the good guys of all things musical ATP... Taking place this summer and permeating the mucky field-based frolics to which we Brits have become increasingly more accustomed,
I'll Be Your Mirror, curated by mercurial ambient alchemists
Portishead is all set for July in the leafy realms of Muswell Hill. The line up thus far, set to sprawl over two stages and taking up nigh on every hour of daylight on 23rd & 24th July, features a slew of artists amidst
our top handful of long players released this year including
Beach House,
Liars, and
The Books. Other acts set for the shows are masked hip hop behemoth
DOOM, Geoff Barrow noisenik side project
Beak>, Nick Cave-fronted doom mongers
Grinderman, and
Company Flow, performing for the first time in yonks on these shores.
The line up as of now includes:
Portishead * Grinderman * DOOM * Company Flow * Swans * Beach House * The Books * Beak> * Liars * Factory Floor * Anika * The Passion Of Joan Of Arc
With more acts to follow, we're not advocating a boycott of groggy mornings under sweltering canvas although a tube journey home from Alexandra Palace may well provide much-desired respite for an odd weekend... Tickets are already available
here, whilst more info can be found, courtesy of ATP,
