Panda Bear & The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion confirmed for ATP curated by Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel)2nd-4th December 2011 at Butlins Holiday Centre, Minehead

Now the Summer festival season has ended, the world famous All Tomorrow's Parties look forward to their December festival events. This year ATP present the return of Neutral Milk Hotel's Jeff Mangum to headline and curate one of our two festival weekends at Butlins, Minehead, UK. Tickets are selling fast and are on sale via  Gigantic and Wegottickets

Today we can announce two major additions to the line-up:

PANDA BEAR - Animal Collective's Noah Lennox presents music from his acclaimed latest solo LP Tomboy as well as his previous classic Person Pitch. This is his first UK trip since his sold out London show in early 2010. He will be playing live alongside Sonic Boom (Pete Kember) of Spectrum/Spacemen 3. (read profile/listen)

THE JON SPENCER BLUES EXPLOSION - one of the most exciting live bands on the planet play a rare UK show: other than a sold out London gig in 2010 this is only their second UK appearance in over 5 years. 

Due to unforeseen circumstances, sadly Mike Watt & George Hurley's will be unable to bring their previously announced Minutemen performance to the event.

The incredible line-up so far for the event now looks like this with more to be confirmed...
