As previously announced Endorse-It In-Dorset is having a Psychobilly Sunday and to round off the line-up for the last day the organisers have managed to book the legendary Nigel Lewis and the Zorchmen. Nigel Lewis and his bass have been on the psychobilly scene from the beginning, being one of the founding members of the first Psychobilly band, The Meteors and audiences can expect classic hits like 'Daddy Was A Vampire' and 'Rockabilly Psychosis'.
To make sure that festival goers will be looking their best the event will also be having a hairdresser on site on Sunday, to provide those quiffs and bouffants for all those wanting to look their best for a day of psychobilly fun.
Also announced is the attendance of the Wreckon crew ( who evolved from the core of The Mutoid Waste people) who will be providing a lot of their Trashed and Wasted Area, which can be seen beforehand as part of Shangri-La at this years Glastonbury festival. The organisers are also working on a new area, (details of which will be released later) to enhance the whole Endorse it experience.
