The Wombats Y Not festival

To continue the love we all felt over Valentine's Day, Y Not is delighted to announce the first raft of bands playing at the festival this year.

The Y Not Festival is a small, intimate three-day music festival held in the heart of the Peak District countryside in August. It is moving into its seventh year in 2012 and we are able to bring you this awesome line up announcement which includes:

The Wombats, The Pigeon Detectives, The Subways, Summer Camp, Juan Zelada, Masters In France, Jim Lockey & the Solemn Sun, Boat To Row, Son Of Eagle.

Y Not is a showcase for all that is fresh and exciting in global music. From emerging talent and breaking bands to established acts, if you want to catch a band on the cusp of success this is your chance. Many of the acts across the weekend will be camping right there with everyone else, giving the whole weekend a sense of intimacy hard to find anywhere else. 

Y Not Festival takes place from 3rd - 5th August in Matlock, Derbyshire
