The family friendly music, arts and science festival has just unveiled its first band announcements for this year’s event. Now firmly established as one of the jewels in the Northern festival crown, Deer Shed returns for its sixth annual outing over the last weekend July. And what a weekend it promises to be if the first artists for Deer Shed Festival 6 are anything to go by.
The term ‘family festival’ was invented to describe Deer Shed. In fact, if you don’t have any offspring in tow you may feel a little out of place. Even its comedy tent is PG-rated. There is a huge array of children’s activities and family-friendly entertainment. It would all be very village fete were it not for the fact that Deer Shed’s music-line up is pretty spot on. There are definitely some heritage acts to entertain the parents but there is also plenty of interesting new sounds and names familiar to 6 Music connoisseurs. As you may imagine, the crowds are very polite, the toilets are clean and the mood is happy. Sadly, most of the fun draws to a close at around midnight, with only one venue open till 2 am and most of the entertainment ending on Sunday afternoon.
Music highlights: Billy Bragg, Boxed In, Emmy the Great, Honeyblood, John Grant,Menace Beach, The Pictish Trail, Shopping, The Unthanks, The Wedding Present

tomorrow we head up to the wonderful Deer Shed Festival held in beautiful North Yorkshire Parkland at Baldersby Park this is one of my favourite festivals, this year the line up is definitely guitar led with some of the music press saying guitar bands are boring and dying out, this line up where we have some of the most ferocious and exciting guitar bands of the year WOLF ALICE, CATFISH and The BOTTLEMEN, PINS, HAPPYNESS, PAWS, GIRLS NAMES, and of course one of this generation’s best guitar players ever with some of the most memorable riffs ever written with the Smiths, Modest Mouse , The Cribs bands or solo Mr JOHNNY MARR.
I urge you to see all of the bands Ive mentioned above, they are among the most exciting new young bands, all with some amazing tunes in their repertoire . You Should also try to catch opener BLEECH another superb live band. TOY a little psychedelic and another live band that unmissable.CHEETAHS have put out some great stuff this year, then we have the supremely gorgeous full of luscious synths WOMAN’S HOUR, with the similar synth led songs LYLA FOY a dreamy pop who previously had the moniker WALL with an outstanding song “Magazine” . American singer songwriter SAMANTHA CRAIN, Welsh Singer-Songwriter CATE LE BON who appears to be moving away from the dark folk sound to a more aggressive rock sound with her fantastic live band including Sweet Baboo in up and finally on the Sunday Charles and Rebecca from the band SLOW CLUB who have produced the album everyone knew they were capable of in this weeks release “Complete Surrender” and be sure to catch the very talked about NORDIC GIANTS who have won awards for their film shorts played behind the band,
so see you all there have a great time and dont forget to see Paul Tonkinson in the comedy area
The Fat Angel Sings
