“We can’t wait to play our music in front of a living breathing audience once again,” Primal Scream have said of their Standon Calling booking.
Primal Scream, Bastille and Hot Chip will all be present for the return of Standon Calling in July.
Others booked for the Hertfordshire event’s 15th birthday between the 22nd-25th include De La Soul, Everything Everything, Mystery Jets, Greentea Peng and Squid.
“It brings me incredible joy and happiness to announce the return of Standon Calling,” director Alex Trenchard says.
“It’s no secret that the past year has been an incredibly tough one not just for the festival world, but for all of us longing to return to some degree of normality and longing to celebrate and dance together once again.”
“This year’s festival is more important than ever, with all of us at Standon Calling determined to bring a summer festival experience full of entertainment and memories to the fields once again.”
“This year’s lineup is my favourite to date, from huge headliners to some of the most exciting new sounds/artists going and the return of some huge family highlights from over the years – I can’t wait to welcome you all this summer.”
