Local artists announced for Jersey Live Festival

by

Opening the Main Stage on the Saturday (31st August) of the festival are London-based art pop four-piece Teddy. Formed in Jersey by Tom Falle and Eddy Bailhache, their influences include Talking Heads, Radiohead and Arcade Fire, and the outfit combine an experimental sensibility with a passion for clever pop tunes.
 
Meanwhile over in the JT Arena, several Jersey Live favourites return; pop-punk outfit and previous Main Stagers Brave Yesterday appear, as do UK-based ‘math-punk’ band Pirate Video Company – both of whom were booked for prestigious slots at Glastonbury Festival in 2011. Another returning act are former Junior Battle of the Bands winners Alfresco Bandits, and making their festival debuts are prog-rockersHarlequin Knights (featuring members of Velofax, The Author and Inside Job) and singer-songwriter Bob Baker, and the stage will opened on Saturday 31st August once again by the winners of the Junior Battle of the Band.
 
The new Folklore Stage, headlined by The Neville Staple Band and Dry the River, sees Jerriaise pop-folk band Badlabeques bring their uptempo and updated traditional Jersey-French songs to kick off proceedings on the Saturday, whilst local cult heroes, the always entertaining (and never without tongue firmly in cheek) Sergeant Pipon’s Lonely Hearts Club Band finally make their long-overdue debut Jersey Live appearance.
 
The Hospitality Stage, whose lineup features a number of exclusive live, DJ and standup comedy and spoken word sets, is opened by singer-songwriter Laura Butlin (Saturday 31st August) and last year’s Spring Spectacular winner and Main Stage opener, the super-talented fourteen year-old Monty Taft opening the Sunday bill.
 
Finally, the Full Flow Locale Dance Tent, curated by local DJ Griff, returns to showcase the best of Jersey’s DJ talent. A relatively recent addition to Jersey Live, making its first appearance at the festival in 2010, the tent is now a staple part of the festival, and this year’s highlights include sets from dubsteppers Schema, Hip Hop/funk/breaks duo Fuzzbox Inc and Jersey Live co-founder Warren Le Sueur, as well as numerous other DJs spanning electronic genres from drum & bass to techno and everything inbetween.
 
Set in the lush countryside surrounds of the Parish of Trinity, Jersey Live is the UK’s southernmost festival and with more sunshine than any other part of the British Isles, and one of the warmest, friendliest festival audiences you could hope to encounter, it’s the perfect festival destination.
 
Keep your eyes peeled for more line up announcements across the seven stages, to be made in the coming weeks! For more information, please visit www.jerseylive.org.uk

Co-organiser Warren Holt:
“We’ve always felt it’s important to showcase local artists at Jersey Live, not simply to give them a leg up but because there are genuine musical talents on this small nine-by-five rock of ours who deserve the opportunity to perform alongside established international acts. There are some great returning acts like Pirate Video Company and Monty Taft, as well as some new bands that haven’t performed here before. I think anyone who’s seen Sergeant Pipon in action before will be putting an immediate circle around their name on the line up! We’re very nearly done with the line up, and will be announcing the last few names in the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned!”

Tamara O’Brien, Head of Marketing & Brand at JT:
“Promoting home grown talent is an idea very close to our hearts at JT, and we are delighted that some very talented local performers are going to have the opportunity of playing at Jersey Live at the JT Arena. We are proud to be supporting this fantastic community event and just like everyone else, we can’t wait for it to begin.”

"Standon Calling 2013 was a huge success and the first time we've ever sold out the festival. We've received amazing feedback from festival-goers and a lot of enquiries from people asking when they can secure their 2014 tickets, so we've put them on sale earlier than planned. I want to thank everyone who made this year's festival what it was: the artists, production and art crews, local residents for their support as well as the security and Herts police who did a great job of getting the balance right to ensure that the festival went off with only two minor incidents."

Organisers have also announced that the gates will open at 4.30pm each day over 14th – 16th August.
 
The three acts announced today complete an ultra-impressive bill bursting with the hottest acts on the planet. Tennent’s Vital 2013 kicks off on Wednesday 14th August, when Kings of Leon, The Vaccines, The Undertones and The Minutes take to the stage on the opening day. Snow Patrolplay a massive homecoming show (their only European date this summer) when they headline Day 2 of the festival, which also features Jazon Mraz, Kodaline and Foy Vance, with Avicii, Tinie Tempah, Rudimental, Naughty Boy and Tommy Trash continuing the party on Day 3.
 
Avicii
 
Iconic punk/New Wave legends The Undertones are sure to receive a rapturous reception when they play Day 1 of Tennent’s Vital. The Derry band reformed in 1999 to the delight of music fans across the globe, winning over a new generation of fans with classics from their seminal back catalogue such as Teenage Kicks and Here Comes The Summer. This year marks the 35th anniversary of the release of their seminal debut single Teenage Kicks, and fans can look forward to hearing all the hits in Belfast next week.

Ibiza Rocks relocates to the snow this winter!

The Ibiza Rocks brand is pushing the boundaries once more with the launch of Ibiza Rocks the Snow this winter.   In collaboration with specialist winter sports operator, Ski France, this new niche European ski operation is focused on the UK youth ski and snowboard market, for those with a strong interest in music.  Starting with 3 x 7 night holidays in Winter 2013/14, Rocks is off to the super cool slopes of Meribel, France for its very first winter adventure.

Holidaymakers will get to live the Rocks lifestyle for 7 days and 7 nights in this premier ski resort as Ibiza Rocks takes the party to the piste, bringing the coolest new live acts and DJ’s along for the ride.  As well as the signature Ibiza Rocks live gig and W.A.R! event during the week, there will also be daily après ski events hosted by the UK and Ibiza’s top clubbing brands, street parties, pool parties, terrace parties, ice parties and much more.  7 nights to ski by day and party by night plus an expert host team to help guests live and breathe the Rocks experience.  With a choice of quality accommodation options at great value (hotel / apartments / catered chalets), this is the perfect holiday for first time skiers as well as seasoned pro’s who also want to party.

Right in the centre of the Three Valleys in the largest ski area in Europe, Meribel’s slopes are perfect for skiers and boarders of all levels. For non-skiers, the resort has plenty to do during the daytime with tobogganing, snowmobiles, husky dog rides and an ice skating rink. Hugely popular with UK skiers and boarders, Meribel is a stunning Alpine town with an intimate village feel. Where it really comes into its own is with its legendary après ski and nightlife. Super cool bars and clubs make this a winter party wonderland. Mix this up with the sounds of Ibiza and travellers are set for a new and unforgettable Rocks holiday experience.
