Hot Chip confirmed for Bestival 2010

January is only just over and already we’re gearing up for the festival season – Glastonbury rumours were rife yesterday, but today’s announcement on Bestival’s line up reveals a host of impressive acts. Dizzee Rascal, The Flaming Lips, Hot Chip, LCD Soundsystem and, er, Rolf Harris are all on the bill.

The full line up can be found over at the Bestival website, but there’s a strong mix of the old (Marc Almond, Gil Scott Heron, Echo and the Bunnymen), the leftfield (Four Tet, Flying Lotus, Here We Go Magic) and the hotly-tipped (Joy Orbison, The Antlers). There’s also dan le sac v. Scroobius Pip, but you can’t have everything.

Bestival will take place over the weekend of 9th-12th Septmeber 2010 at Robin Hill Countyside Adventure Park near Newport on the Isle of Wight and tickets are available here.
