Alkaline Trio & Mclusky Announced For 2000 Trees
All other festivals: go home now. The geniuses at 2000trees Festival have just announced that American punk rock legends ALKALINE TRIO will headline the 2000trees Festival main stage and MCLUSKY* will top the bill in The Cave, both on Saturday night.
Also announced today are Future of the Left, Benjamin Booker, VENNART (formerly Oceansize) and Hacktivist.
“To say we’re delighted is a massive understatement, because for many rock fans Alkaline Trio defined a summer with their album ‘From here to Infirmary’ and songs like Private eye and Stupid Kid are pop-punk anthems known the world over,” said organiser Andy Rea.
“In fact we’re proud of the outright brilliance of all the acts across our line-up and it is undoubtedly the best we’ve ever had in terms of diversity across six stages, from internationally famous names to local heroes.”
Three-day tickets for the award-winning 2000trees Festival are close to selling out and organisers confidently predict the event will sell out before it celebrates its ninth year near Cheltenham, on 9-11 July.
Other acts among the 100-strong bill include Idlewild, We Are The Ocean, Young Guns, And So I Watch You From Afar, The Skints, Kerbdog, Pulled Apart By Horses, Arcane Roots, The Xcerts, Bury Tomorrow, The Twilight Sad, We Were Promised Jetpacks, Turbowolf, Feed the Rhino and Defeater.
