Hoping for Rolling Blackouts CF, great album reminds me of Go betweens a lot (no bad thing).

Also proclaimers after last week's BBC 4 doc.

I see Robert Forster is touring next year. I'd love to see him added.

Wow, I'm listening to Rolling Blackouts now, brilliant stuff! That's their 1st album? Real echoes of the Gobetweens alright. I'll be keeping an eye on them.

They've also released two excellent 6 track eps, saw them at primavera and in Whelan's during the year. Doubt they'll still be touring the album in August though.

I understand he does a lot of the GBs stuff so he’d be a great addition. Never seen him solo & he’d be ideal for Rankins Woods. My hopes for EP are mainly mid & lower tier.

Some interesting stuff but unbothered about EP missing out on most. Jon Hopkins I’d hoped to see back though.

Pity about First Aid Kit, utterly love me some elbow but seen them 3 times in the last two years so not too pushed about them not being at EP.

(not an utter breeze as to who the rest are apart from Hopkins, bought his last effort and quite enjoyed it)

I'm the same. Would've loved to see them both at EP. Might have to see about a day ticket for FF just for this. (are there day tickets for FF?)

Saw First Aid Kit at ATN last year. They were great.

Tame Impala and Robyn both announced for Flow Festival in Helsinki a few weeks before EP, good to see Tame Impala will still be around Europe later in the summer and Robyn has a couple of festival dates in Scandanavia around then. Of the early candidates they are two of the acts I would love to see at EP next year so fingers crossed. We shared Kendrick Lamar, St Vincent and Sigrid with them last year.

Finally caught it last night. Loved it and they'd be a great headliner for the Electric Arena.

Just a few of those please Mr. Claus and I'll be forever grateful.

mgkelly

That's quite some list!
Would be surprised to see a jazz icon like Kamasi Washington there, but who knows.
So, The House of Love back; that's something to see! Listened to a lot in early 90's.

Ferris_Bueller

Good list Seathrun. This would be mine based on who I can see is playing festivals in 2019.

Tame Impala
Robyn
Hot Chip
Bon Iver
Mac Demarco
Christine & the Queens
Metronomy
Little Dragon
Beach House
Kurt Vile
Toro Y Moi
The Streets
Foals
Floating Points
Parcels
Car Seat Headrest

And throw in a load of good DJs and Irish acts for good measure. Not asking for much!!
