Would be a quite big stray away from recent band bookings to be honest - its basically just larger very generic/mainstream indie bands for headliners

Yeah I thought that but out of the heavier bands they're definitely the most accessible. I'm not saying they should go out and get them but wouldn't be a bad shout for a wildcard.

I think they would be very low down their list to be honest - Boardmasters book from a very diverse pool, they will defo have better options

This trio is a fair downgrade on recent years to be honest

 

They seem to try get at least one international act now, with all three of these being on the smaller side too for a Boardmasters headliner.

 

Maybe swap Central Cee for a US rapper - not sure. I think you could strengthen one of the other two as well, not really sure who though

They literally had 3 British headliners this year

fair enough

 

That trio is still missing a bigger act though - prodigy and kasabian aren't really impressive sellers nowadays, nor is central cee.

Where's the Sam Fender, Liam Gallagher etc?
