In fact, we might well, just call this feature ‘Festival of the Week’ as it’s going to get might crowded in the coming month or so.

Bit of a no-brainer this time round – The Wickerman is on this Friday 23rd/ Sat 24th, down the Solway coast at Dundrennan. Some big attractions like Sons and Daughters, Teenage Fanclub, plus the usual eclectic mix that brings together punk legends the Undertones and Buzzcocks, a reborn Tony Christie, the recently-announced Go! Team, plus 808 State, Futureheads, Amphetameanies… the list goes on and that’s before we get to the Solus Tent, with a lineup of Scottish talent too long to go into in full, but including Mitchell Museum, There Will Be Fireworks, Panda Su, Unicorn Kid, Conquering Animal Sound, White Heath, Withered Hand, Woodenbox with A Fistful of Fivers – the list goes on…

And, the headlining Charlatans and Ocean Colour Scheme. More at: www.thewickermanfestival.co.uk
