More headline acts announced for new music festival in Brechin

Rag’n’Bone Man has been announced as the headliner for a new music festival in Angus.

He will take to the stage of the Summer’s End Angus event in Brechin on Saturday, August 15.

Organisers announced on Friday that UB40 and Pixie Lott will also join the bill, joining Susan Boyle, The Jacksons, Bonnie Tyler, Skerryvore, Tide Lines and Sandi Thom, Judge Jules, Gok Wan and GBX.

The inaugural edition of the festival takes place at Brechin Equestrian Fields from August 14-16.

Festival founder and director Katrina Hutchinson-O’Neill said: “Summer’s End Angus is built with long-term ambition – to create something rooted in Angus but operating at national scale.

“Being community-rooted doesn’t mean being quiet, small or lacking ambition. Bringing artists of this calibre to the region shows what’s possible when you invest in culture, people and place with intent.

“Angus has never been short on history or ambition. Summer’s End Angus is about using the infrastructure we have, backing culture and people, and playing a role in putting a region with deep roots and heritage back on the national stage.”
