Jim King, the Festival Director of Rock Ness said, "GoNORTH has been an important feature of Rock Ness over the last three years and they’re bringing some really exciting new bands again this year. They’re also hosting the new and suitably larger Black Isle Pub which is going to have a great vibe as well as some outstanding organic brews. This arena really represents the commitment we want to make to new artists and we’re delighted to see GoNORTH back with us once again."
