Taking place 6th – 9th July at Cheltenham’s Upcote Farm, if you’ve not yet picked up your tickets here’s some acts we’re hoping will convince you!

Heavy Lungs

Bristol's noise rock quartet are the perfect act to catch if you're a fan of visceral post-punk delivery and raucous, metallic guitars! Falling somewhere between Do Nothing, IDLES and The Murder Capital, their wild performance isn't to be missed.

Cheerbleederz

Indie-rock trio cheerbleederz are gearing up for the release of their debut album 'even in jest' on 27th July. Landing in the midst of Snail Mail, Hop Along and Charly Bliss, if you're a fan of lo-fi melodic punk and sugary pop anthems chock full of fiery lyricism, this is the band to catch.

DITZ

Following the release of their debut album 'The Great Regression' in March this year, Brighton-based DITZ have been moving rapidly from strength to strength. In the vein of Crows or our aforementioned Heavy Lungs, they're an act you simply have to see live.

S.T. Manville

On a lighter note, Midlands-based S.T. Manville delivers soft, touching bedroom-folk akin to Sufjan Stevens or Keaton Henson. Emotive and poignant, he's mastered the art of oozing beauty in sad times.

Cherym

Hailing from Derry, the pop-punk trio count Smashing Pumpkins, Bikini Kill and American Football amongst their influences. Spanning melodic rock to the heavier side of punk, their manic performance is a guaranteed must-see this year.

Zand

Hotly-tipped, the rising artist has exploded in the alternative scene as a self-proclaimed 'ugly popstar'. Their songs are gritty and uncomfortable, leaning heavily into hardcore influences with a fizzing mania that's illuminated by gleaming neon and full-frontal no-holds lyricism.
