The Truck Festival returns for a seventh year between 24-25 July, and a host of acts are already confirmed. Tickets are on sale now priced at just £25 from www.wegottickets.com.

Run by the band Goldrush and a host of other like-minded souls at their Truck label, it now has a capacity of 3,000 and will be further cementing its reputation as being the UK’s only truly independent music festival. It’s known for showcasing a vast array of music, often missed by other events. Donating over £20,000 to various charities from Art Therapy to Mali Redevelopment, it does its bit too. Last year over £3,000 was made on banana milkshake alone!

Truck replaces advertising boards with passion and overpriced, under-prepared food with locally-produced niceness. It may be a bit too ‘indie’ for hardcore V Festival goers, but it’s the perfect remedy for those Glasto sellout blues and for anyone who fancies a chilled out, relaxing weekend where great new music is top of the menu.

Acts confirmed so far:

Goldrush, Buck 65, Black Nielson, KTB, Dive Dive, Chris T-T, KaitO, MC Lars, Trademark, Toulouse, Days Of Grace, Tiger Club, eeeblee, Villa Real, Nervous Test Pilot, The Evenings, Piney Gir, Luke Smith, Igloo, I Love Lucy, Black Madonnas, Swearing at Motorists, Sunnyvale Noise Sub-Element, The Epsteins, The Shit, Stars of Aviation, Orf Orchestra, Sha La La’s, Lach, Kate Garrett, Thomas Truax, Chantelle Pike, and The Henry Big Band.

Truck Festival 2004 takes place at Hill Farm, Steventon, Oxfordshire, on July 24th-25th.
