eFestivals can exclusively reveal that Strummerville will be at this summer's Endorse-It In-Dorset.

Strummerville is a registered charity that aims to create new opportunities for aspiring musicians. They will be bringing their new set up, including a hut, new bus, and flags to Sixpenny Handley in the green open setting of Cranborne Chase, Dorset. This is just one of only four UK Festivals this year, Glastonbury, Big Green Gathering, and The Secret Garden being the other three.

The charity will also bring with them, for the first time at any Endorse-It Festival, the Strummerville communal camp fire, which offers sing alongs, musicians, and more.

Set up by the friends and family of Joe Strummer in the year after his death, the charity seeks to reflect Joe's unique contribution to the music world by offering support, resources and performance opportunities to artists who would not normally have access to them.

Endorse-It In-Dorset held from Friday 7th to Sunday 9th August has a line-up that includes a mixture of ska, dub, punk and more. The confirmed acts include headliners Dreadzone, and Pama International, plus Pronghorn, Zion Train, Sham 69, Attila the Stockbroker, Inner Terrestrials, The Powersteppers feat Molara, Tofu Love Frogs, SixNationState, The Highliners, Farmageddon, Toupe, Flipron, Eat Static, Cash Converted, Subgiant, Guns of Navarone, Hobo Jones & TJD, The Boot Hill All Stars, Cracked Actors, Who's Afear'd, Tragic Roundabout, Port Erin, The Lucky Sevens, Monkeyrush (featuring Fil Planet), and DJ Dapper Dan & The Macassa Man.
