Roots Manuva has been announced as the Saturday headliner for Farmfest which returns to Bruton, in Somerset on Friday 28th and Saturday 29th July 2017.

He joins previously announced headliners Shobaleader One, Squarepusher’s Live band performing Jazz Funk versions of Squarepusher Classics, plus This Is The Kit, Nightmares on Wax, Greg Wilson, Actress (DJ Set), London Astrobeat Orchestra Performs: Talking Heads, Beans on Toast, Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Orchestra, BC Camplight, Melt Yourself Down, Broken Brass Ensemble, Dizraeli, Ishmael Ensemble, Goan Dogs, and many more. For the details so far please see the line-up page.

Due to an unforeseen European booking error – a circumstance that’s out of the festival’s hands – Farmfest is disappointed to have to announce that Tony Allen will no longer be performing at this year’s festival.

More acts and DJs will be announced over the coming months ahead of the festival at the end of July. Expect performances from some of the finest emerging and established left-of-mainstream live acts and DJs, while inner peace and play can be found in anything from comedy to kiddies' discos, chilltime workshops to theatrical wig-outs.
