Skiddle: The UK's biggest guide to festivals

There's so many amazing festivals out there but it can be difficult to work out which festivals you're going to attend. There's so many things to take into consideration - the location of the festival, the size of the festival, the genre of music, whether it's family friendly and the type of facilities onsite.

Skiddle's new Festivals Finder is here to make the process that bit easier. Simply use the Festivals Finder's unique festival search, which include options allowing you to search for festivals based on filters such as location; month; genres; type; size; accommodation; amenities and even the artists you've liked on Facebook!

Joanne Robertson grew up amidst the carnal circus atmosphere of Blackpool, United Kingdom. Her work is glorious in its simplicity and its purity; the guitar/ vocal only approach allows you the space to hear just how well-placed every last note is.The debut solo release The Lighter (by Textile Records) is individual enough to demonstrate quite clearly that the force is strong in this one. Joanne Robertson’s musical background is in noisy experimental rock band I Love Lucy and as part of Mememe. This, her first solo effort, retains the spirit of experimentation but operates in a more stripped-down, ethereal sphere than you might expect. There’s much in common with folk music, but hers are altogether more individual compositions as opposed to part of any particular folk tradition. Robertson may hail from Blackpool, but the tones of this record suggest the echoes of the midday blues in the Louisiana swamplands with the humidity draping a grim sense of anticipation over everything.
