Main Stage? They'd play the opening of an envelope.

Thundercats Ho · 18-08-2017 09:56AM

I'd not heard of them, so did a google.
Pissy pants music.

Wile E. Coyote · 18-08-2017 09:56AM

Who the f*** are Keywest?

Same here. New to me, but after a quick listen I've had enough. Apparently they had a number one album here in 2015. Shows how much I know.

Facebook kids will be delighted.

With Phoenix in support & cap-collecting for them?

EP gone to the dogs. To hell in a handcart. Let's call the whole thing off.

Last bit was an obvious (I thought) sardonic reaction to the guy slagging off EP again.

SLF celebrating their 40th anniversary this year. Chance they could play given Mindfield is doing the Summer of Punk thing.

Seem to be the latest in the line of The Script clones doing the rounds.

Terrible stuff, but with the condition of the music industry it seems to be one of the few genuine ways of making money relatively quickly so i suppose what are you gonna do?

Via 98fm:

The final batch of acts have been added to the Electric Picnic line-up, including Keywest, The Riptide Movement and All Tvvins.

The Strypes, Le Galaxie and Tiga have also been added to the bill. The sold-out festival returns to Stradbally in two weeks time.

Organisers are already on site starting to get ready to welcome crowds. Headliners include The XX, A Tribe Called Quest and Duran Duran.

London Grammar will also be playing, Pete Tong and his orchestra will be bringing their Ibiza Classics and Dublin's own Annie Mac will get the crowd pumping with her massive house/disco/dance set.

Other acts added to the line-up today include Giggs, Tale of Us, King King Company, Rusangano Family and Dublin Gospel Choir.

Not exactly the spectacular announcement we were looking for but there's more than enough in previous announcements to keep me happy.

Fully agreed. They've only given the names of 11 of the 20 acts but I'm not holding out much hope for the other 9.

These two have been on the Body & Soul lineup for a while - more doubling up? That's it I'm not going.
