Bestival Add Basement Jaxx And More

Bestival have today added three more acts to their already stellar line up. 

The artists announced are Paloma Faith, Basement Jaxx and Candi Station.

The additions join headliners Foals, Outkast, Beck and Chic, and will perform at the festival which takes place between 4-7 September, 2014.

On the announcement, festival curator Rob da Bank said,“Desert Island Disco seems to have lit up everyone’s imaginations with its mirrorball and palm tree vibes going down really well. So we though we’d add some disco divas and pure upfront house legends to the bill. Basement Jaxx did us the great honour of headlining the first ever Bestival way back when, so I’m doubly chuffed they’re coming back to tear it up. Paloma played a few years back when she was just starting out and on the eve of her disco inspired album coming out we thought it’d be rude not to. And where do I start with Candi Staton? She may not have played Bestival before but her hits have been caned by DJs over the years. You Got The Love is surely gonna be one of those ‘moments’ at Bestival 2014. See you at the Disco”.

Tickets for the festival are available now.
