The Clause, are a 4 piece alternative indie band from Birmingham formed in 2016.

They describe themselves as having a ‘60’s swagger, an 80’s groove and a 90’s attack with the odd techno influence in the live shows’. We’re thrilled to welcome these lads back and we know they’re going places. Don’t forget where you saw them first ;)

Dub Pistols

Music Act, Lakeside Stage
CC20 DUB PISTOLS 02 MAILER-1.jpg

A riotous collision of drum & bass, hip-hop, ska, dub and punk, there is a slice for everyone at a Dub Pistol party.
One of the hardest working bands in showbusiness, Barry Ashworth and his crew have become a firm festival favourite with their big-beat techno and rock attitude.

Get ready for a ‘Mucky Weekend’ and be sure to catch them playing Saturday at Camper Calling 2020 on the Lakeside Stage!

Lakeside Stage
CC21 ALIENSDO MAILER.jpg

aliensdontringdoorbells comprise Dorian Foyil, Adam King and Christian Pearl. The band took their outlandish name from a conversation Foyil recalled witnessing between an old man and Foyil’s (then) six year old son on a New York subway platform a number of years ago: the old man appeared to be talking to himself until he turned to the boy and said, “it’s because aliens don’t ring doorbells.”

Guaranteed to have you singing, dancing and reaching for the nearest hairbrush or tennis racket or whichever household implement stands in for rock n’ roll paraphernalia these days, these guys are here to restore your love for the damn right catchy, mainstream rock tunes.
A festival staple, start your Saturday off right at Camper Calling this year!
