Underage Festivals -

Underage returns for a second semester, featuring headliners Gallows, Foals, The Horrors, The Rascals, Bonde Do Role and The Maccabees.

After last year's massive sell out success, Underage is returning to the playground of Victoria Park for its second year of a modern music master class. The world's first incarnation of the Underage festival in 2007 was an unprecedented summer sensation and this year's line up is bigger and bolder, featuring a detention hall full of bright young things.

Headlining the event are Gallows, the most unpredictable, riotous, rock n' roll band on the planet, whose particular brand of hard core punk is sure to provide one of the seminal festival moments of 2008. Following in their slip stream are Foals, whose recently released debut album was one of the most eagerly anticipated records in recent years and The Horrors, those big haired, squid-flinging, art school ghouls who bring their Goth-garage to Victoria Park.

***LINE-UP ANNOUNCEMENT***

We are very sad to have to announce that The Horrors will no longer play at this years Underage Festival, however we are pleased to be able to hopefully soften the blow by announcing Dizzee Rascal. Please see below for a statement from The Horrors..

We're really sorry to announce that due to un foreseen circumstances we are unable to play at this years Underage Festival in Victoria Park on the 8th of August. The recording of our new album has taken us outside our beloved London Town, we've tried to rearrange our schedule, but unfortunately the studio dates clash with the Festival show. We've been really looking forward to this day as we played two of our favourite shows at the Underage Club when we first started and we missed last year's Festival because we were out of the country.

We are deeply upset that we're going to let down a lot of our fans and friends at Underage, but when we have finished the new album we are planning to play a special show at Underage Club later this year, we'll hopefully see you there.
