Read a full description of all the acts below.
The Cosmic Dead (UK): For anyone who hasn’t yet stood before the Dead and their live homage to the cosmos, expect religious devotion to synthesized dreamworlds, subsonic grooves, guitaristic splendour and the vast, hypnotic sounds of Hawkwind and Popol Vuh eternally jamming in the Möbius strip of time and space.
The Cult Of Dom Keller (UK): Since 2008 this psych vessel from Nottingham redefines the parameters of psych music, spiking the fuzz laden nuggets with shoegaze and noise. Their music can be as dreamy as Spacemen 3, as harsh as Jesus & Mary Chain or as dangerous as Brian Jonestown Massacre.
The Black Tambourines (UK): Falmouth's Black Tambourines put in the best performance I saw at this year's Great Escape (nme) Blissfully hazy garage flower-punk in the same vain as The Black Lips, the material is born from long days spent dreaming by the coast in their native Cornwall.
Twinkranes: Dublin’s Twinkranes create psychedelic progressive pop skillfully harassing drone and the motorik beats of Krautrock to create a hypnotic & visceral live show and a brief but noticeable rip in the space-time continuum.
Woven Skull: Woven Skull create a contrast of minimal drones, repetition and psychedelic distorted riffs all layered in constant unconscious rhythms.
Beach: Beach are a 5 piece band based in Dublin. Beach have developed a unique blend of psychedelia infused with elements of electronica and slacker rock whilst expanding their live show by incorporating visuals to create a more immersive expression of their music.

Wild Rocket: WILD ROCKET plays space metal. WILD ROCKET plays heavy psychedelic. WILD ROCKET endures. WILD ROCKET lives.
Fabric (NI): Started in Summer of 2014, continuously writing and perfecting original material and live sets, striving to invent a new sound by exploring many different genres/artists and musical styles.
I Heart The Monster Hero: The music they make has been described as 'fuzzed-up swirl of pop-laminated psych punk.
Sun Mahshene: Sun Mahshene is a collective of musicians from Dublin, Ireland. Their melodic hooks mixed with fuzz and grit delivers a sonic wall of sound.
