There’s less than two weeks to go until Dot To Dot returns to Bristol once again and it’s shaping up to be a pretty special one. Headlining this year’s festival are witty Leeds rockers Yard Act who received rave reviews for their debut LP, The Overload, in 2022.

 

They will be joined by Canadian indie pop mainstays Alvvays; tireless Birmingham rapper Kofi Stone. Dublin-based post-punk outfit, The Murder Capital; Stereophonics and The Maccabees supergroup, 86TVs; eclectic punk band, Opus Kink and eclectic hip-hop artist Finn Foxell.

 

Other national acts to look out for include fast-rising DJ, yunè pinku; synth-pop artist BEKA; Teesside noise trailblazers, Benefits; Edinburgh-born singer-songwriter, Hamish Hawk; UK hardcore mainstays High Vis; and cult hyper-pop favourite, Cryalot.

 

Dot To Dot have also curated an incredible roster of local acts. Music fans can look forward to dirty dancehall from Grove, experimental electronica courtesy of Jemima Coulter, Birdman Cult’s fuzzy post-punk, classic rock n roll from The Family Rain, Tlya X An’s quirky brand of glitch-pop and plenty of other live acts as well as an Ishmael Ensemble DJ set.
