Headliners
alt-j
Leeds band alt-j were formerly known as Films, but changed their name to the symbol that you get from the Mac shortcut alt+j. The band comprise Joe Newman (guitar/vocals), Gus Unger-Hamilton (keyboards) and Thom Green (drums). Their original and unique experimental indie/electronic sound saw their debut album, 'An Awesome Wave', achieve great critical acclaim which went on to win the prestigious Mercury Music Prize in 2012. They also won the Ivor Novello Album Award in 2013 and have received a string of nominations over the years from the Brits and Grammys. While critical success is always welcome, commercial success came with their 2nd album; 2014's 'This Is All Yours', which reached no.1 on the UK album chart, while 2017's 'Relaxer' reached no.3. They then enlisted an array of artists from the world of Hip Hop and Rap to remix and reinterpret the material from 'Relaxer' for 2018's 'Reduxer'.

Portishead
No-one outside of Bristol knew that such a place existed until the mid nineties. That all changed with the release of the stunning debut 'Dummy'. The over all sound is intensely dark and haunting - no-one else can evoke desolation, pain and anguish the way they do. Live Performance is completely focused - they are masters of the mood they have chosen for themselves.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds
Needing no introduction, Noel is best known as the guitarist, occasional singer and songwriting backbone of Oasis. Since Oasis split, Noel has carved out a successful solo career under the guise of the High Flying Birds, taking the name from the song 'High Flying Bird' by Jefferson Airplane and as a homage to Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. Noel released a highly successful debut eponymous album in 2011 which became the second biggest-selling rock album of that year in the UK, just behind Coldplay's 'Mylo Xyloto'. Several critics felt it was his best work since '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?' His second release, 'Chasing Yesterday' in 2015, reached no.1 on the UK album chart and the success story contined with 2017's 3rd album 'Who Built The Moon?', also reaching no.1.

Jon Hopkins
From Kingston Upon Thamas, Jon Hopkins is a critically acclaimed electronic musician who is a favourite of TV music supervisors on both sides of the Atlantic. His name is often uttered in the same breath as Brian Eno, William Orbit, Massive Attack and Moby. After a Mercury Prize nomination for his 2013 album Immunity, Jon soon became one of the most talked about new British artists in the diasporadic world of modern electronic music. His fifth studio album 'Singularity' was released in 2018, while as a producer he was also worked with Coldplay, David Holmes and Natalie Imbruglia.

The Vaccines
London-based four-piece The Vaccines firmly believe that less is more, with songs like 'Wreckin' Bar (Ra Ra Ra)' clocking in at under two minutes! Their fast and furious brand of giddy rock 'n' roll could almost be the sound of the Libertines and Ramones falling down the stairs at 100MPH. The band released their debut album What Did You Expect From The Vaccines in 2011, which became the biggest selling debut album by a band that year, while the 2012 follow up, Come Of Age, reached number one in the UK album charts. They have continued to have top 5 chart albums with 2015's English Graffiti and 2018's Combat Sports. "On record the Vaccines wallow in the echo-drenched wooziness made famous by the Jesus And Mary Chain, but live they reach back further through pop's past glories, stirring the shimmering girl group drama conjured by Phil Spector and scuzzed up by the Ramones." -The Guardian.

SBTRKT
SBTRKT is an elusive London-based producer making some of the freshest beats around.

Clark
Chris Clark is an English electronic musician currently signed to Warp Records. With the 2006 release of Throttle Furniture, he shortened his artist name to Clark. His meticulous production style makes much use of manipulated live drum samples, which are used to construct complex beats. Clark is one of the most innovative and singular artists to ever release a record on Warp, much like those that lay the foundations before; Aphex Twin, Plaid, Autechre & Nightmares On Wax

The 2 Bears
Raf Rundell and Joe Goddard are The 2 Bears. Sound familiar? They should do, Raf is DJ Raf Daddy: Ministry of Sound radio show host, label head and club promoter whilst Joe is a producer, solo artist and one fifth of Hot Chip. The two are also both members of the Greco-Roman Soundsystem collective and have now joined in an exclusive collaboration formed on a love of House.

Prides
An indie rock trio from Glasgow, Prides produce a well-rounded guitar/drum led sound, complimented by elegant electronic touches. They are not afraid to take chances and experiment. Prides have consistently proved themselves to be band with big songs, and equally big crowds. The band played the 2014 Commonwealth Games closing ceremony to 7.5 million people on BBC1, shortly followed by an invite to support Blink-182 at Brixton Academy

Rae Morris
Rae Morris is a young singer/songwriter from Blackpool. Learning piano at an early age and forever underestimating her ability, Rae found a voice she didn’t know she had. Make your own comparisons, but be sure to notice a girl of maturity beyond her years. Cleverly matching her inimitable voice to songs of new experiences, those defining challenges like love and not always being able to have the answers, Rae is the epitome of raw and claims nothing else. Her coming-of-age tales make her a modern-day PJ Harvey, Kate Bush or Feist. 'Rae Morris is becoming the country's most beloved singer-songwriter' (Zane Lowe, Radio 1).

Oliver Daldry
Young singer-songwriter hailing from Suffolk. With a classically trained background, Daldry picked up his first guitar at the age of seven, and the astounding skill he has developed is evident immediately, with audiences are captivated from the first note.

Josef Salvat
An Australian indie singer / songwriter, currently based in London, who is already a major player on the internet airwaves, hitting number six in the Hype Machine chart. His music moves from whispery crooning to honest, almost bleak lyrics combined with haunting vocals and piano.

Vessels
Five-piece electronica outfit Vessels shook 2017 with “one of the year’s best dance music albums” (The Art Desk). Following career-defining sets at Berlin’s Berghain, Beat Herder and Simple Things, Vessels perform live in The Lantern with all the “beat-driven sensibility and deftness of arrangement” (Loud and Quiet) we have come to expect. Taking the lead from Caribou, Jon Hopkins and Four Tet, Vessels make music that is clever, intricate and “stupidly enjoyable” (Drowned in Sound).A new start for the Leeds band formerly known as A Day Left, expect some brilliantly catchy and ferociously intelligent noises in the same vein as Aerogramme and Oceansize.

Jason Manford
Renowned for his hilarious observations and loveable, friendly delivery, Jason has been a firm favourite with comedy fans of all ages since his first solo stand-up show earned him huge critical acclaim and a nomination for the prestigious Perrier Newcomer Award back in 2005. ‘8 out of 10 Cats’ (Channel 4), ‘The Nightly Show’ (ITV1), ‘Sunday Night at the Palladium’ (ITV1), ‘Live at the Apollo’ (BBC One), ‘Have I Got News For You’, (BBC One), QI (BBC Two) and ‘The Royal Variety Performance’ (ITV1) have all helped establish Jason as a nationally known comic.

He has been an Edinburgh If comedy nominee, and was the 2008 winner for best breakthrough act in the Chortle Awards.
