Hop Farm Music Festival
4-6 July, Paddock Wood, Kent.

After last year´s cancellation, the festival that defends no sponsorship/no branding and embraces musical diversity is back with an eclectic line-up and some unmissable acts. Here are our ten acts you must not miss this weekend:

Ray Davies & Band: What else can we say about this legend? If the Holy Trinity of British classic rock is composed by The Beatles, The Stones and The Who, certainly we can´t skip The Kinks. And here´s his frontman to remind us that The Kinks’ catalogue is one of the most eloquent and essential of all time.

Brian Wilson: The Beach Boys´ mastermind. One of the most brilliant and perverted minds of American pop music. An undefeatable genius, an artist obsessed with perfection and harmonies and a mad precursor of surf, psychedelia and the Californian cliché. The man behind Pet Sounds. Do I need to say more?
