The Shipping Forecast Associated Festival : Beacons 2012 – First Acts Announced – New Site
We’re really excited to see Rodney Smith aka Roots Manuva on the Beacons line-up this year. Following the release of last year’s 4everrevolution – his most powerful work since Run Come Save Me – the UK hip-hop legend will be bringing his innovative sound to the Yorkshire countryside this summer. And one of UK hip-hop’s rising stars will also be playing. The Mercury Music Prize-nominated Ghostpoet will be laying down his laconic beats and baritone drawl and you’ll get the chance to see why Factory Floor have made a fan of Joy Division / New Order’s Stephen Morris and had the likes of Pitchfork and Quietus touting them for bigger things.
Beacons is a three-day, four-night festival and for a short period, tickets are available at just £60 for the weekend, including camping (£55 for students and Regulars Cards holders). A limited number of early bird weekend tickets are available now. Tickets will be available to purchase from the Beacons Festival website, HMV, Seetickets, Gigantic, Leedstickets.com, Jumbo Records and Crash Records.

Thur 9th Feb Abandon Silence
Abandon Silence are proud to present a special double bill as two of the UK’s hottest artists head to The Hold. 2011 was the year of Mosca, from his early releases to the inescapable Bax, played by artist as diverse as Seth Troxler, Skream and James Blake. To quote Fact, who placed the track at number 2 in their 2011 countdown; “Suave as you like, it blew up any dancefloor it came near and reminded us why we fell in love with UK club music in the first place.” Supporting Mosca is the prodigious duo Disclosure, who bring their fresh and exciting live show to The Shipping Forecast. They spent the last couple of months of 2011 on tour as a part of the Annie Mac Presents… tour, being handpicked by the Radio One DJ herself. Despite their relative infancy, they have crafted a reputation as one of UK electronic music’s ‘next big things’. Support comes, as ever, from Abandon Silence resident Real.
The Milk – March 23rd
Click play above to watch the video for “B-Roads” by The Milk.
The Milk have announced details of a mammoth twenty-eight-date UK tour throughout March, stopping off at The Shipping Forecast on March 23rd.
The Milk are quickly earning a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting live bands. They were even nominated for Best Breakthrough Artist at the UK Festival Awards this summer, going up against the likes of Bruno Mars and Jessie J. In London alone, the last year has seen The Milk perform rammed-out headline shows across the likes of Hoxton Bar & Kitchen, Dingwalls, The Jazz Cafe, XOYO and Camden Barfly, predominately whilst still unsigned. With a new single scheduled to coincide with the tour, the band’s first extensive UK tour will see them preview songs from their forthcoming debut album, which has been produced by celebrated DJ and remixer Brad Baloo (The Nextmen).
