Love Saves Sunday Announce Nile Rogers & Chic As Headliner
aaamusic | On 09, Apr 2013
It’s got to be the perfect Sunday headliner booking. The phrase ‘Good Times’ kinda belongs to CHIC, and there’s nothing you can say about Nile Rodgers that hasn’t already been heard by billions of people, in thousands of cities, in hundreds of countries. The career of Nile Rodgers is one of the most enduring and prolific in music. Nile’s signature is scrawled across an amazing array of music – from Madonna to Diana Ross, from David Bowie to Eric Clapton, and his influence with emerging artists is as strong today as it’s ever been. But CHIC has always been Nile’s spiritual home. If you haven’t seen CHIC live, you need to. Who can fail to lose it to “Le Freak”, “I Want Your Love”, “Everybody Dance”, “Dance, Dance, Dance”, “My Forbidden Lover”, and “Good Times”?
With 7 weeks to go, Love Saves The Day has now SOLD OUT. But don’t worry, the fun has been extended to Love Saves Sunday on the same site, offering the perfect solution whether you want to carry on, chill with friends, or bring the family along to a cracking day out in Bristol’s city centre Castle Park.
Conceived by the brains behind Glastonbury’s WOW stage, See No Evil and one half of the team behind the much lauded In:Motion series, Love Saves The Day and LOVE SAVES SUNDAY celebrate musical pioneers and innovators bringing together some of the finest DJ’s and live acts that the globe has to offer.
ALSO HEADLINING THE MAIN STAGE:
JULIO BASHMORE
Julio Bashmore is the talk of many a town, and certainly one of the hottest names in his native Bristol. This show will be a big one for him and the city. His love of the low-end frequencies of house fit perfectly with the UK most bass-indebted city.
THE CRAZYLEGS STAGE:
Om Unit, Brackles, TRC, TOYC, Hodge, Shandy, The Kelly Twins, Spooks, Shaun P
The Crazylegs Team bring a whole clutch of greatness to Castle Park including the electronic pioneer Om Unit, bass-forward proponent Brackles, the elasticated basslines of TOYC, the primative dustep and analogue techno of Hodge, Crazylegs co-founder and main protagonist Shandy, purveyors of all things Bass and Bristol favourites The Kelly Twins, and the garage-tinged, broken-house of Crazylegs residents Spooks and Shaun P.
Also confirmed in the first release of acts for LOVE SAVES SUNDAY are: 2 Kings, Artifact, Babyhead – Live, Ben Pearce, Clean Bandit – Live, Dub Boy and Tenja, Dutty Girl, Lil Silva, My Nu Leng, Necessary Mayhem – Curtis Lynch and Mr Williams, Rainy Milo – Live, Reggae Roast, Riddum Tuffa, Steve Rice, The EEL and Walter Ego.
