Joining an already stacked bill, Reading & Leeds Festival organizers have announced 80 new acts to the bill as well as details of new stages for the weekend.

Headliners Hozier, Chappel Roan, Bring Me The Horizon, and Travis Scott will be joined in August by some amazing names, including: Waterparks, Skye Newman, Late Night Drive Home, Demae, Leigh-Anne, Charlotte Plank, Sunday (1994), Artio, Cliffords, Unpeople, and many more.

This year the festival will also see the return of the Chevron Stage along with a new underground electronic stage which will provide music for fans long into the night.

Speaking of the new stage, Melvin Bragg, Managing Director of Festival Republic said:

“This summer, we’re adding a new underground electronic stage at both sites and boosting our late night offering for those who want to dance into the early hours. This continues the massively successful precedent set last year, with the award winning Chevron Stage and The Aux – which has already attracted huge stars like Brittany Broski for her debut festival show. The BBC Introducing Stage also returns and it truly is at R&L where it transforms careers.”

While on new, revamped camping options, Bragg said:

“Our free, overhauled camping options are also really resonating. With nearly half of Leeds weekend ticket holders having already signed up and Reading close behind, our investment in elevating what general camping at UK festival can be is paying off.”

I have an unhealthy obsession with bad horror movies, the song Wanted Dead Or Alive and crap British game shows. I do this not because of the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll lifestyle it affords me but more because it gives me an excuse to listen to bands that sound like hippos mating.
