Festival director Steve Williams said, "Echo and The Bunnymen had a fantastic 2014 and the band look to carry on gigging hard in 2015. After last year’s tours the band are super-tight and played some blinding sets which Willowman fans can look forward too in June.
"They will be joined by Hooky’s band which started off as a small project and has grown into a major globe-trotting act. I can’t wait to hear that classic cannon of songs blast from the Willowman stage – it’s going to be amazing."
The event held over the Summer Solstice weekend also offers many onsite activities for children, plus a whole host of robots, faeries, jugglers and stilt walkers adding to the laid back atmosphere.
