Glasvegas, The Fall & Kathryn Roberts Added To Bearded Theory

Bearded Theory Festival has announced three more stunning acts onto their already stellar line up for 2017.

Platinum selling Scottish indie outfit GLASVEGAS join the Pallet Stage on Sunday, bringing their animated and renowned live show to the fields of Catton Hall. Their chart successes stem back to 2008 with their debut album going into the UK charts at number 2.

The beautiful solid oak Woodland stage have bagged a coup in securing iconic post-punk band THE FALL to perform on Saturday night. Led by notorious king-pin front man Mark E. Smith, The Fall’s back catalogue is legendary, with nine Top 40 albums and a chart topping single in Totales`s Turns.

BBC Folk Award winners KATHRYN ROBERTS & SEAN LAKEMAN have also been added to the Woodland line up, replace the previously announced Nova Twins who had to cancel due to touring commitments elsewhere.

As previously announced, Seminal British rock act Skunk Anansie, and punk duo Slaves will headline on Friday, Veteran bluesman and festival favourite Seasick Steve will headline Saturday night, and Sunday night will reverberate with the sounds of classic hits including ‘Our House’, ‘Baggy Trousers’ and ‘One Step Beyond’, as North London’s finest nutty boys Madness will close the festival in style.
