Boardmasters: Who you should see this weekend

So it's forecast to be a bit of a cloudy weekend in Newquay for this years Boardmasters festival but hey, stay happy campers because you've got a lot of lovely music to enjoy! This year boasts one of the most eclectic line ups the festival has seen yet, so here's who to see on your weekend by the sea.

LOWER THAN ATLANTIS
Main Stage, Friday
Mike Duce and the boys are bound to give you the most raucous main stage set you'll see this weekend as they perform all the classics as well as their newest pop-sprinkled hits. Whether you're a long time fan or just a dabbler, it's worthwhile checking them out, even if just for the showmanship.

SPRING KING
Mavericks, Friday
Spring King are one of the most urgent bands you won't have heard of yet. They're bound to be the next big indie thing following in the footsteps of Catfish and the Bottlemen and Peace, so be sure to catch their set for grooves and melody galore.

LETHAL BIZZLE
Unleashed, Saturday
Bizzle on the beach is the only thing that you'll be able to think about until you've seen it for yourself. He'll bring the noise in the form of all his greatest hits as well as new firecrackers such as Fester Skank and Playground.

DRENGE
Mavericks, Saturday
Want some sludgy indie rock? Drenge are your boys. The Sheffield two piece will get your ribs rattling and get your body moving in weird and wonderful ways and there's a chance they'll turn up wearing dresses too.

GOD DAMN
Mavericks, Saturday
Do not miss God Damn. As another two piece, you will be amazed by the noise that comes from these two long haired beauties and although they might make your ears bleed, they'll be your new favourite band for sure.

THE DARKNESS
Mavericks, Sunday
I believe in a thing called love, just listen to the rhythm of The Darkness. Justin Hawkins is a marvel and will strut around in glam rock glory and make you fall under his spell. If you want to end your festival in true rock n roll party style, there's only one band to see, and that is The Darkness.
