Ash and Supergrass to headline Truck

plus Yacht, Red Light Company, Pulled Apart By Horses, and more

Monday 6th April 2009


Supergrass, and Ash, have been announced as the headliners for this year's Truck festival.

Supergrass
Local heroes Supergrass will headline the Truck Stage on Sunday night, with Ash topping the bill on Saturday night, with the Truck Stage also playing host to Red Light Company, and Detroit Social Club.

Playing their only UK festival appearance will be Yacht who play the Barn Stage, with And So I Watch You From Afar, Pulled Apart By Horses, Calories, and Data.Select.Party also confirmed to perform in the barn.

Acts confirmed to bring the beats to the Beat Hive include Errors, Heloise & the Savoir Faire, Chew Lips, Sportsday Megaphone, and nervous test_pilot.

The solar powered Market stage is run on solar power this year and will feature Broken Records on the Saturday. Radio DJ 'Whispering' Bob Harris, will be interviewing and introducing artists live on the new Bob Harris Presents stage on Sunday and will feature Gary Louris & Mark Olson (The Jayhawks), Pete Molinari, and Mike Heron with Georgia Seddon - the Incredible String Band songwriter performing with his daughter. These are the first of many acts to be confirmed for this year's festival.

The event is called Truck Festival because bands originally used two trucks put together as the main stage. Truck takes place over the weekend of Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th at Hill Farm, Steventon, near Abingdon, in Oxfordshire.

Tickets are on sale, and as last year, kids go free (under 14 accompanied by an adult). An adult weekend ticket is priced at £70 including camping and workshops. Children under 14 years old must be accompanied by a paying adult, max 2 per adult, and still need tickets.
