Portarlington festival will burst into life in June

With early-bird tickets already sold out - but Tier 2 tickets currently on sale for a wallet-pleasing €30/€40 - B.A.R.E In The Woods have unveiled the lineup for their summer spectacular.

It's headed up by British singer-songwriter Jon Gomm, who is joined in the foreign legion by folk-electronica merchants Mt. Wolf and Kiwi indie-popper Pikachunes.

There's plenty of impressive home representation too, in the shape of R.S.A.G., Sleep Thieves, Nanu Nanu, The Eskies and a host of others.

Having grabbed three nominations at the Irish Festival Awards last year, the second renewal of the festival is eagerly anticipated; June 13 is the date for your diaries!

Another wave of acts will be announced March 18, so stay with hotpress.com for that...
