exclusive: Alabama 3 for Endorse-It In-Dorset

plus more ska acts old and new and DJ Scratchy

Thursday 17th April 2008


This year the Endorse-It In-Dorset Festival have announced more acts for this year's family friendly, old school vibe festival held over the weekend of Friday 8th to Sunday 10th August.

Endorse It will be rockin' to acid house infused country rock as Alabama 3 join this year's bill. Also added to the line-up is DJ Scratchy renowned for being The Clash's DJ and who will be doing a special late set. For those of the audience who are ageing skinheads, then the name of ska legends from the '60's Symarip might be familiar, for the rest of us the Trojan Records act will be a chance to experience their heavy, pumping but always good-time sounds. Completing the latest list of names for the weekend is Smoke like a Fish who are being touted as the best new British ska act on the circuit.

The line up which is by no means as yet complete, there's plenty more acts still to be announced. To whet your appetite for the line-up of who is playing so far, please click here. There's such festival flavoured names as Buzzcocks, Back To The Planet, Inner Terrestrials, Dreadzone, The Beat, Pronghorn, Goldblade, Subgiant, Cropdusters, Hobo Jones & The Junkyard Dogs, Imperial Leisure, The Highliners, Fat Drunk & Stupid, Six Nation State, Arno Carstens, Steranko, and Optic Nerves.

The organisers have also announced a competition for guitar players coming to the festival - The AXE Factor and for those who don't play guitar, but want a chance to get on stage, back by popular demand is the Endorse-It Punk Karaoke, both events have a full band playing on stage.

Endorse-It In-Dorset takes place near the village of Sixpenny Handley in the green open setting of Cranborne Chase, Dorset. The festival is a safe, family friendly old school type of festival, with a reputation for quality entertainment at an affordable price.

Those visitors attending can also expect music and comedy, plus a kids' area, food, beer, stalls, tipi hire, loadsa loos, family camping, healing area, chill-out area - all the usual things that make this festival such a nice experience.
