ArcTanGent confirm another 17 bands
ArcTanGent Festival have confirmed another 17 bands!
First announced via the That’s Not Metal Podcast, another 17 bands have been confirmed for this year’s festival and leading the charge in today’s announcement is GLASSJAW and SHELLAC who both will perform exclusive headlining sets at this year’s festival! Speaking about performing at the festival, SHELLAC‘s Bob Weston says, “since we’ve never been to the festival, I’m not sure what we could say about it other than that we’re looking forward to playing in Bristol. It’s nice there. Are there still a lot of road works going on?”
Also confirmed to perform at this year’s event is PELICAN, LA DISPUTE, ARCANE ROOTS, ALCEST, ZEAL & ARDOR, BLACK PEAKS, VENNART, DELTA SLEEP, TELEPATHY, PEOPLE LIKE MILK PRODUCTS (MEMORY OF ELEPHANTS & CHIYODA KU BIG BAND), SCALPING, WREN, JO QUAIL, VLMV and VASQUEZ. Speaking about the latest announcement, festival organiser James Scarlett says, “this feels like the biggest and best announcement we’ve ever done at ATG. Having GLASSJAW and SHELLAC as main stage headliners will be amazing, but personally I’m also very excited about PELICAN‘s first visit to Fernhill Farm – it’s certainly long overdue. I’d really urge people to check out our Spotify playlist. We put a huge amount of effort into curating a line up that has strength in depth from the top to the bottom – so go check out TELEPATHY. Check out SCALPING. Check out ZEAL & ARDOR if you don’t know them. Check out them all!”
