Super Furry Animals Back For More

Together the band reunites as their original lineup of Huw Bunford, Cian Ciarán, Daf Ieuan, Guto Pryce and Gruff Rhys. (Minus their original singer now actor Rhys Ifans) The band first emerged from Cardiff in 1995. They became known quickly for their outrageous advertising using giant inflatable bears and Yeti costumes to get the word out there. By 1996, they released their debut album Fuzzy Logic. From there they built their reputation of indie psychedelic rock band all through the noughties and early 2000s. This was done through their hits such as Northern Lites, Juxtapozed with U and Ice Hockey Hair. Now they are back just in time to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their album Love Kraft.

A Really Good Time To Be Had

Additionally Super Furry Animals are supported by acts such as Baxter Dury and Really Good Time. Englishman, Baxter Dury is sure to make waves supporting with his indie chamber psychaelic dance tunes. In particular with his song Lips which was recently just featured in hit show Heated Rivalry. You won’t be able to miss the juxtaposition with Irish rock band Really Good Time. They are guaranteed to provide a post punk dance floor before Super Furry Animals are to take the stage.

It has hosted a variety of musical artists from The Vamps, Franz Ferdinand to Fleet Foxes with this year’s lineup also containing acts like Mac Demarco and Amyl and the Sniffers.
