Ten Bands You Should See at Glastonbury Part Two

Carrying of with my must see at Glasto thread now... a few obvious choices if you've followed this blog, purely by the number of postings each artist have received...

4. Beach House
Where? The Park - Saturday 16.00
Why? Teen Dream will be in almost everybody's end of year lists because it is flawless, it's just a beautiful album. Take Care is lovely, a crowd please set at Glastonbury awaits. Cannot Wait.
Buy? Beach House missed my radar until this year, the amazing Teen Dream which certainly put them in the general eye and I'd say start there as it's by favourite of their three albums.
Preview? See my other posts for plenty of live FM broadcasts / sessions and live recordings.

Watch? Well you can ask for a better introduction to Beach House than Zebra, so watch this...


5. Laura Marling
Where? The Park - Saturday 21.30
Why? The majestic beauty Laura Marling will be a great post football (hopefully) sing-along / swoonathon / celebration (hopefully again!). If we lose (not worth thinking about) she'll also be great at cheering us up.
Buy? Both her albums are must buys, I'd probably say I prefer the first; Alas, I Cannot Swim, just.
Preview? Plenty of material available on my old posts - the Austrialian FM broadcast is great if can ignore the Triple JJJ spiel.

6. Dirty Projectors

Where? The Park - Sunday 21.15
Why? Bitte Orca was righfully critically acclaimed as one of the albums of the year in 2009.
Buy? Bitte Orca - it's the album that made them massive. They are prolific and have quite a few albums behind them.
Preview? You can listen to a special track they did for Levi's here and a 7" digital single for free by visiting their website below.
