Bastille headline Boardmasters alongside Rudimental

Bastille and Rudimental are headliners

Published 4th Feb 2015

Bastille have been announced as the second act to headline Boardmasters 2015 after missing last year’s festival due to hurricane Bertha.

They join fellow BRIT award winners Rudimental who were previously announced as the first headline act on the line-up.

Bastille will hit the stage on Sunday night of the festival, which takes place in Cornwall on 5th - 9th August.

Frontman Dan Smith said: “We're all incredibly excited to be coming back to Boardmasters for, barring anymore hurricanes, an amazing night in the West Country.

“Growing up in the South West, Boardmasters was a festival I always wanted to play, so when it was cancelled last year I was devastated.

“Hopefully coming back this year will help make up for it and we'll be able to play some material from our new album as well. We can't wait to see you all in August.”

The band had huge success with their debut album ‘Bad Blood’, making them one of the biggest selling British debut acts of 2013.
