Iconic hits reimagined by a brass band; loads of Britpop and indie anthems; tunes played with a rockabilly twist; harmonies from an acapella choir and a DJ set of 80s tunes will bring the summer party vibes to the Arboretum Beer Festival this August.

Also back for a second outing, The Outriders take on history’s jukebox never fails to get the audience on its feet and rocking, singing along and calling for more. Sweaty, funny and astoundingly accomplished, the Outriders win new fans wherever they play.

 

Acapella choir Totally Vocally –  the place for natural born singers – bring their pure harmonised vocals to contemporary pop, rock, funk and gospel with groove, warmth and soul.

 

Eighties Things DJs will play a DJ set of hits from across the decade to close the day with a blast of Blondie, Human League, Depeche Mode and Duran Duran.

 

Taking place a few times a day, Indie Bingo! will test who knows their Supergrass from their Suede for the chance to win spot prizes. Along with more entertainment on the Acoustic Rooms pallet stage, the festival is going to be fun for all ages.

 

Pat Somers, DHP Family, said: “It’s a pleasure to be welcoming back Deep Down Brass and The Outriders to the Arboretum Beer Festival after their amazing sets last year. We’ve also managed to book festival-favourites T-F-I 90s to bring their Britpop magic to the bandstand, along with the awesome acapella choir Totally Vocally to kick things off. On top of that, we’ve got an Indie Bingo session, an Eighties Things closing DJ set, and more to be announced from our friends at Acoustic Rooms… it’s our biggest entertainment line-up ever!”
