Let's give a big Little Orchard welcome to Candar
⁠
Candar. A name stolen from the dead flower shop. The alt-rock duo from North Devon, blend melodic vocals with gritty guitar riffs and bombastic drums crafting a sound that’s both delicate and commanding.⁠
⁠
Ella and Finn grew up shaped by the rugged coastline and surf - crossing paths at jam nights and experimenting with the balance between noise and fragile melody together. Something about the chaos of the sea and the silence of the village influenced a search for a sound that didn’t exist, but is now mirrored in the duality of both heaviness and quiet introspection in their songwriting.⁠
⁠
Moving to London, introduced dark, sweaty venues and Candar was born. From the sound of heartbreak and distortion, tangible connection came when strangers started screaming after the first few chords.⁠
⁠
FFO: Band of Skulls, Avril Lavigne, The White Stripes and Wolf Alice.⁠
⁠
Watch Candar on Saturday 12th Sept - The Other Stage⁠

Bristol’s own Dreamwave are heading down to the farm!⁠
⁠
These brilliant musicians have been proper busy over the last two years. They have sold out headline tours across the UK and Europe, and smashed massive sets at festivals like Glastonbury and The Great Escape.⁠
⁠
Now, they are bringing their brand new EP Drifter straight to Little Orchard. ⁠
Expect a wild, brilliant mix of Neo-Psychedelia that perfectly balances garage-rock and dream-pop. If you are a fan of early Thee Oh Sees or Tame Impala, you will absolutely love this set.⁠
