Dynamite blows line-up into orbit

Big Audio Dynamite are set to perform at this year’s instalment of Benicassim.

Held in Benicassim, near Barcelona, Benicassim mixes a fantastic blend of music with superb weather. If your idea of festival fun is being knee deep in mud, then this gig ain’t for you.

This year’s bill is already shaping up to be a cracker. Mumford & Sons, The Strokes, Primal Scream, Arcade Fire and LOADS more have been confirmed. Artists seem as keen as ever to perform at Benicassim in 2011.

The latest batch of new additions to the event includes Big Audio Dynamite. Often referred to as ‘what Mick Jones did after The Clash’ the band are great to watch, check out the clip below.

BAD (Big Audio Dynamite) only reformed earlier this year, widely known for merging the sounds of reggae and hip hop they really have been responsible for some groundbreaking material. They’re sure to whip the Benicassim crowd into a frenzy at this year’s festival.

Layabouts have been confirmed, along with The Go! Team, Paolo Nutini and Brandon Flowers. The line-up also contains some breaking acts with Dorian set to perform.

There’s still a lot more to be added to this line-up but as you can see it’s already shaping up to be one FAT FESTIVAL. If you’re still not convinced then don’t forget Benicassim has already confirmed appearances from Sheffield indie giants Arctic Monkeys! Grab your tickets today.
