Joanna Newsom to headline this year's Green Man Festival
Lorelei_22 by Laurel Dreher April 6th, 2005
It's recently been announced that Joanna Newsom is to headline Sunday night of this year's Green Man Festival. She'll take a break from her UK tour to join the ranks of fellow headliners Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & Matt Sweeney (who are the big names for Saturday night). This Newsom's only UK festival date.

This year's Green Man Festival will take place August 19-21 at Baskerville Hall, Hay-On-Wye, Wales and will feature over 40 live acts, including The Earlies, Adem, James Yorkston, Micah P. Hinson, Alasdair Roberts, , along with many other DJs and various other acts.

The festival will also include folk singer Shirley Collins and her talk about her experiences in the '50s and in collecting folksongs from the Appalachians and Deep South. Parents will be happy to know that there is a wide variety of children's entertainment, everything from puppet shows to storytelling.

For more information on the festival, as well as for a full list of all the acts that will be playing this year's Green Man, visit here.
