The open-air Devorgilla Stage is to be host to some of the greatest underground bands of the last 20 years from Celtic, Roots, Tango, Reggae, Klezmer, Samba, Afrobeat, Folk, Balkan, Gypsy and Ska. The stage itself will be as impressive as the line-up it provides.
Gomez
Internationally acclaimed and with a top-selling UK album under their belts, Gomez have never stopped working on their unique rock sound and have recently released their latest album, A New Tide. A NEW TIDE marks a return to the always-freewheeling British band's more experimental roots, with songs like "Win Park Slope" and "Airstream Driver" evincing a spirit born of boundless imagination and a longstanding collaborative relationship.
As ever, a wide range of styles is incorporated into Gomez's matchless musical brew. Flavors of Delta blues, psychedelia, and Krautrock all come into play, resulting in a musically mischievous and remarkably forward-thinking collection.

East Park Reggae Collective ft Lotek
(Mercury Music Award Winner)
The mighty East Park Reggae Collective are a class act. Their love for Reggae comes from a love of music and a political frustration best manifested the only way they know how. This band is on a mission and now come with Lotek from the legendary ROOTS MANUVA, returning to Eden Festival to blow the crowd away. They move audiences with their rough breed of dub, reggae and ska, performing infectious original material. No heart is left untouched, no foot remains unmoved. With tunes calling on inspiration from corrupt leaders and social injustice through to prevailing good times, this band is as current and real as it is musical and entertaining.
