The Festibelly gang are hugely excited to announce that New Young Pony Club will be topping the bill for 2011. Festibelly said ‘New Young Pony Club are an incredible band, not only on record but on stage too. Lead singer Ty is an amazing performer and totally captivating to watch. They’re a perfect headline act for Festibelly, with sing-along pop anthems to disco dance-floor fillers. We’re honoured to have them and pretty ruddy excited to see them in action on the Festibelly stage!’. 

The punk-pop disco-rockers achieved massive international success in 2007 with hits such as ‘Ice Cream’ and ‘The Bomb’ taken from debut album Fantastic Playroom. 2010 saw the release of second album The Optimist which the NME described as ‘copper-bottomed, stone-clad, liquid nitrogen-fuelled pure pop genius’. An album full of beautifully crafted, edgier and darker disco-pop songs, it signified a dazzling progression of the bands sound, with tracks such as ‘Lost A Girl’, ‘Chaos’ and ‘We Want To’ establishing New Young Pony Club as one of the most credible and exciting bands in the UK.

Also set to make an appearance at the festival is the legendary Howard Marks, aka Mr Nice. Howard will be joining us for a quick, err… cup of a tea… and an intimate story-telling session with tales from his extraordinary past. 

Other additions include long time Festibelly-favourite James Yuill (DJ), Channel Swimmer, Figures (James Delay & Jamie Blanco), Francis Day and more.
