2012 festival bill completed

The full and completed line-up for this year’s festival has now been completed and we are delighted to welcome a further 10 acts to this year’s festival.

NI rock legends Therapy? are set to cap off this year’s event alongside previously announced acts The Japanese Popstars, Fighting With Wire, LaFaro, Silhouette and many more.

Joining them from this new announcement will be Mojo Fury, Rams’ Pocket Radio, Triggerman, Empty Lungs, Swanee River, The Red Velvetines, Paul Casey and Ard Ri with a special Rural Key collective showcase and the Red Bull Bedroom Jam winners Icon On Fire.

The completed bill now includes 52 musical acts featuring some of the best new and emerging talent from across Ireland, with a total of six stages showcasing something to suit all tastes.

“Selecting the line-up for this year’s festival was one of the most difficult yet due to the quality of submissions we received,” said festival organiser Paddy Glasgow.

“The team listened to over 700 entries and had the hard task of breaking that down into 50 acts.

“We feel that we’ve programmed one of the most vibrant festival programmes yet however, with the largest array of styles on show, and with something to suit almost everyone.

“Away from the musical side of things there’s excitement for all with a comedy tent, village area a host of kids activities and much more to keep your festival spirit alive across the weekend,” he added.

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank every single person who took the time to submit for this year’s event,” said Paddy.

Glasgowbury 2012 takes place across the weekend of July 21st and tickets are on sale now from hmvtickets.com and from stores across Ireland.
