Reignmaker

Quickly rising up through the underground scene of their native Liverpool, passionate indie quintet Reignmaker have already established a distinctive style. They channel their youthful spirit and charismatic scouse personalities to create a sound that radiates an uplifting optimism. Combining swelling rock and roll textures with soaring vocal chorus’ and lyrics filled with a striking poignancy, their sound is one that is impossible to ignore.

Tipped by BBC Introducing, the band have quickly become one of the most hotly anticipated young bands in the North West and they are only just getting started! Catch them on the Arrow Stage, Friday afternoon!

Friday's Theme!

TIGHT, BRIGHT NEON LIGHTS

Hello Friday night RAVERS! Your Friday theme is ‘Tight, Bright Neon Lights’. Think 90s rave with 80s fashion. The bigger, the bolder, the better. Night will fall, the DJs will take charge and your UV paint will illuminate the dance floor. Glow sticks at the ready, kiddos.

Silent Disco

Shh! Camper Calling’s worst kept secret IS BACK!

Head into the woods and find your voice as our DJs battle it out for crowd participation. Infamous and a heck of a lot of fun for all the family, head on in for the quietest disco in town!

Please don’t hold on to the headphones throughout the weekend. This will make it a fairer experience for everyone; Headsets will then never become low and other people can make great memories too!
These headphones have no purpose outside of this specific silent disco either…so there’s really no need to take them. Return them after your disco session so the fun can roll on!

Thank you ❤️

Meet Gina Jane and Jacob Lobo, AKA GeeJay. A fantastic fuse of Soul and Jazz, the North London duo are set to usher in a fresh voice to the modern jazz era. Expect smooth saxophone skills from Jacob with incredible powerhouse vocals courtesy of Gina. One not to miss!

The Magic Numbers

With their incredible harmonies, bittersweet melodies and a decade of touring under the belts, The Magic Numbers are the perfect fit to start the the weekend off. 

“Their predilection for a bittersweet nugget surfaced again with a cover of Skeeter Davis’ immaculately tragic The End Of The World, previously used to impress Neil Young on a recent tour, which showcased the tight three-part harmonies of Stodart, his sister Michele and keyboard player Angela Gannon.”

— Fiona Shepherd, The Scotsman

UK Foo Fighters Tribute

View fullsize

It’s been a huge year for the UK’s premier Foo Fighters tribute band, and we’re glad that they’ll be making Camper Calling part of their 2016 story. 

With an expansive back catalogue of the American rock legend’s seminal tracks under their belt, the UK Foo Fighters Tribute will be bringing all the energy and bounce you’d expect from Dave Grohl and the gang!

“It isn’t very often that you see such a wild reaction in a crowd at a tribute band gig, but on this occasion, it was completely justified – the UK Foo Fighters Tribute were already beginning to sound like a close, almost carbon copy of the Foo Fighters themselves.”

— Nicola Claire Allen, The Demon

“Jay, obviously loving every minute, somehow recreates that famous Grohl swagger without, at any point, losing his own identity as a fantastic performer and showman in his own right.”

— Jacqueline Grima, Humanity Hallows
