Mad Dog McRea, Hillside Heroes & GoldMann are amongst the bands announced today to play at this year’s Maker Festival. The festival is this year called ‘The Rame Dance Festival’, changing it’s name from the Sunshine Festival as the name seemed to curse the weekend with lots of rain.

It is not yet known on which day the bands are scheduled to play, nor has there been an official announcement on the headliners.

The event this year will be a smaller festival, with only 1000 tickets being sold. It takes place on the weekend of the 2nd – 4th July. Visit http://www.makerfestival.co.uk for more information.

Not bothered about the World Cup? Well good news! Maker Events and the Mole Train Project have got together and organised a night of Live Music, DJ’s, BBQ’s and Mountain Boarding to take place at Maker Heights in Cornwall on Saturday 12th June.

The event kicks off mid day with a Mountain Board free ride session before a competition featuring some of the best riders in the world kicks off at 3pm. An outdoor stage will host various live bands and DJs whilst a BBQ will also be taking place.

In the afternoon, the bar will open in the Energy Room, which will be the venue for the rest of the nights entertainment including live sets from local faves like Hillside Heroes, Richard James and Hexadeci. The party doesn’t stop there, however, as after the bands there will be DJ sets from the likes of DJ Coy who has recently played with DnB legends such as Grooverider, Mampi Swift and Nicky Blackmarket, as well as sets from DJ Polo and DJ Skank Maggot.

With a graffiti demo from Andy Knights also included, this event has a lot going on. If you’re not worn out by the Sunday, a wind down session will be taking place with more bands tbc. Check back here to get the latest news on Rooster Park Open Day.

Hillside Heroes

Swiss — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:21:14 +0000

HILLSIDE HEROES BEGAN WHEN FOUR FRIENDS, WHO ALL SHARED A PASSION FOR WRITING AND PERFORMING, MERGED THEIR INDIVIDUAL STYLES TO CREATE A UNIQUE COMBINATION OF ENERGETIC, NO-NONSENSE INDIE AND HIGH-OCTANE SKA, WITH A TIGHT REGGAE FLAIR. A TRULY DISTINCTIVE SOUND.

SINCE THEN THE BAND – WHO ARE BASED IN CORNWALL – HAVE GONE FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH. THE HEROES HAVE BEEN BUSY BUILDING A SUPPORTIVE FAN BASE AND A SOUND REPUTATION ALL OVER THE SOUTH, INCLUDING CORNWALL, BRISTOL AND LONDON.
