2022 Friday

Basement Jaxx (DJ Set)

Lakeside Stage

Charlotte Church’s Late Night Pop Dungeon

Lakeside Stage

Down the dark, dark stairs, upon the bloody gallows of soft rock, through the oubliette of cheese, into the torture chamber of disco, you are welcomed to the Late Night Pop Dungeon.

The Grand High Executionatrix, dungeon mistress Charlotte Church, will be treating you to the greatest tunes that time forgot, and some that will forever haunt our collective memory. Bring your dancing shoes to the Lakeside Stage Friday night!

Charlotte Church (1912-3045) is regularly called a hippy, an accusation she vehemently rejects (despite being regularly spotted crocheting her own yoghurt in "those'' coffee shops and buying veg boxes from local farms in flares and a Mexican baja). Nobody has managed to convict her of an actual crime as of yet. This is puzzling to the readers of teen megazoins in which she has listed "bank heists" as a hobby since the floods of '98. She abhors whimsy of any kind and nurtures a glory of unicorns in the battlements of her higgledy-piggledy palace made from the toenails of toothfaeries. Yay!



The Selecter

Lakeside Stage

We are incredibly excited to announce The Selecter will be performing Friday at Camper Calling!
Led by The Queen of Ska, Pauline Black and original member Arthur ‘Gaps’ Hendricks, The Selecter are undoubtedly pioneers of the 2-Tone era. All the anarchic passion that fuelled Selecter gigs in the 80’s is still there, except the pair are even more driven. Expect explosive performances, politically engaged lyrics and purely uplifting records.
They don’t make legends like this anymore!

The Pale White

Lakeside Stage

In a musical landscape that continues to proudly proclaim the death of modern rock music, The Pale White have consistently proved that this couldn’t be further from the truth. Hailing from Newcastle in the UK, the three piece containing brothers Adam and Jack Hope and friend Tom Booth, have spent the last few years fanning the flames of a rapidly growing and loyal fan base. Breaking out of their home town with appearances at prestigious festivals such as Glastonbury Festival and Reading and Leeds, whispers of their energetic and impassioned live performances have began spreading across the UK and Europe, which has seen crowds fall for their thunderous and unapologetically anthemic take on rock music. Further bolstered by seal of approval support slots from modern rock figureheads such as Foals, Sam Fender, The Amazons, The Libertines and Twin Atlantic, it’s just a matter of time before a mainstream audience proclaims them their own. Teaming up with acclaimed producer Jolyon Thomas (Royal Blood, U2, Slaves), the bands anticipated debut album ‘Infinite Pleasure’ is set for release on April 23rd. The album includes latest singles “Take Your Time”, “Glue”, “Confession Box” and a rework of their 2016 demo “That Dress” which have seen the band usher in a new chapter.

Uncle Funk's Disco Inferno

Lakeside Stage, Music Act

Get ready to feel the party and feel the burn!
The most explosive disco Band, Uncle Funk’s DIsco Inferno join us at Camper Calling. Sure to get you in a spin playing a winning set of disco classics and modern dance bangers! Every song in the set has been chosen with the dance-floor in mind – nothing indulgent, nothing obscure, just the hits!

Mellowmatic

Lakeside Stage, Music Act

Fronted by female and male lead vocalists and rappers, with keys, synths and sax, delivering infectious bop through to tasty grooves and breaks. Mellowmatic bring a live set engineered to rock any stage, and take their audience on an eclectic musical journey via Boombap 90’s to present day. Executing a tight musical performance, on point every time, this big-sound-high-energy band is made to be seen and heard.  


The Novus

Lakeside Stage, Music Act

Legends around these parts, if you caught The Novus last year, you know you’re in for a treat!
Art-Punk band - The Novus are their own breed of excitement.

Born and raised in the Black Country & Birmingham, they live at the heart of what was once the industrial revolution. No strangers to crafting themselves, The Novus have created and defined a genre all of their own - combining all the finest aspects of their favourite music they have concocted a political psychedelia & art punk like never before. And supplying a somewhat nostalgic yet unfamiliar image with unrivalled hair and eye makeup. Battling the stereotypes of masculinity and prejudice towards their fellow ‘lefty snowflakes’. A voice for millennials, by millennials.

DJ Yuki

Lakeside Stage

Already gaining multiple Spotify playlist covers and editorial support, London based female DJ/Producer, YUKI adds to her international DJ success releasing her debut singles including ‘Weekend Love’ with Dante Klein and Laura Davie(House Gospel Choir)and a 2022 remake of Ciara classic ‘Goodies’ with production duo FUSE this year. She’ll be kicking off the main stage at Camper Calling 2022 on Friday.

Mr. Wilson's Second Liners

Music Act, Lakeside Stage

New Orleans meets 90s club classics!

A rabble of mischievous northerners, Mr Wilson’s Second Liners form a traditional New Orleans Second Line. However, this is no sombre occasion: Mr Wilson’s expend their collective musical talent paying homage to the diehard days of the Hacienda, 90s club culture and its greatest hero, Mr Tony Wilson.

These revolutionary genre bashers knock the First Line sideways, opting for upbeat dance tracks over traditional slow hymns. Proudly stepping out in uniformed style, they channel the spirit of the 24 hour party people and get audiences dancing wherever they play.

The vision is an anarchic, street extravaganza, bursting with colour and sound, rallying impromptu raves on street corners and rousing audiences young and old into a joyful frenzy.
