You Me At Six, Don Broco, Foals, More To Play Truck Festival 2019

A few days ago, the British rock/indie festival Truck Festival teased some of their lineup by mailing people potatoes with band names written on them. Now, we have some of the full lineup.

Earlier today Truck Festival rolled out some of their lineup that features some pretty amazing acts. Foals, Slaves (UK), You Me At Six, The Futureheads, Don Broco, Kate Nash, Two Door Cinema Club, Puppy, Milk Teeth, and Shame were announced to play the Oxfordshire based festival. Others announced included indie darlings whenyoung, psych-pop group She Drew The Gun, solo artist Zuzu, indie pop quartet Clean Cut Kid, and Sunshine Frisbee Laserbeam, who’re also playing 2000trees Festival in July. 

The festival takes place at Hill Farm in Oxfordshire, UK, from July 26 to 28. Tickets are available now.

Truck Festival was created back in 1998 to combat mainstream festivals like Glastonbury who, according to Truck’s founders the Bennett family (including Robin and Joe from the band Goldrush), thought was too commercial. Since the festival’s formation, acts like Biffy Clyro, Frightened Rabbit, Kids In Glass Houses, Creeper, British Sea Power, Los Campesinos!, Frank Turner, Skindred, MC Lars, and Franz Ferdinand, have performed. 

Check out the current roster below.
