Bestival organisers are showing the love for the ladies by hosting a variety of truly world class women this year who are set to strut their stuff at Robin Hill in September.
Long-time Besti-friend, Charli XCX, is heading back to Bestival this year alongside Lianne La Havas, Neneh Cherry and London duo RocketNumberNine. Ella Eyre, experimental singer-songwriter Andreya Triana, BBC Radio 1 raver B.Traits and BBC 1Xtra’s ever-eclectic Monki also join the line up for the event between 10-13th September.
Rob da Bank says:
“Well whaddya know? There are shedloads of amazing people making some startlingly good music at the moment… from pop to leftfield, soul to hip-hop and some ace DJs too, and look, lots of them are female! Whatever next?
“Joking aside, I’m really proud to announce the next wave of talent for Bestival – from pop starlets Charli XCX and Ella Eyre, to the legendary Neneh Cherry, and so many good new indie bands like Jagaara, Honeyblood and Girlpool. We’re also raving away at Bestival HQ to the latest mixes from leading lights of the DJ scene, B Traits, Monki and Moxie. I cannot wait for September now – see you there!”
