2022
Kate Lomas
Arrow Stage, Music ActDreaming about the wild side of life through her infectious dream-pop anthems, Kate wants us all to party to her own brand of pop music. Having commanded playlist support from BBC Radio 1, securing live performances at legendary Abbey Road and Maida Vale studios, Kate is carving her own niche with her distinctively British self-produced indie-pop bangers.
The Allergies
Lakeside Stage, Music ActSince forming in 2012 The Allergies have made it their mission to reshape funky vintage sounds for the modern dancefloor.
Both skilled turntablists in their own right, and known for their 45 only vinyl sets, the duo of DJ Moneyshot & Rackabeat first bonded over their love of classic hip-hop and beats, then decided to pool their knowledge and skills into making their own music.
“We like breaks, funky basslines, horns, and dancefloor grooves. We’re inspired by the golden eras of funk, soul, disco and hip-hop, and we try to cram that into three and a half minutes”.
Don’t miss these beats, Saturday at Camper Calling!
Thrill Collins
Lakeside StageIs it ever really Camper Calling without the triple threat of Thrill Collins?
We will once more reunite for a session of skiffle-pop, boppy covers and one hell of a party. Opening the festival with a bang on Saturday, be sure not to miss one of the most talked about acts of Camper Calling
TC & The Groove Family
Arrow Stage, Music ActTC & The Groove Family are a 10-piece collective whose music celebrates the coming together of cultures, and the unity that music can provide for everyone. Driven by drummer Tim Cook, their live shows are powerful and dynamic, exploring grooves and genres from the UK and around the world, including afrobeat, breakbeat, jungle, jazz and highlife.
Basement Jaxx (DJ Set)
Lakeside StageUndoubtedly one of the world’s most iconic dance acts, the legendary Basement Jaxx, double BRIT Award & GRAMMY winners & creators of countless hits including “Red Alert”; “Do Your Thing” & “Where’s Your Head At” bring their fire DJ set to the fields of Camper Calling.
Charlotte Church’s Late Night Pop Dungeon
Lakeside StageDown 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!
Björn Again
Arrow StageThe internationally acclaimed Australian Björn Again show joins the Camper Calling line up on Friday night!
Performing ABBA’s extensive list of hits, Björn Again is sure to have you in a disco mood with a rocked-up, light-hearted satirical show.
Be sure to don your flares, grab the glitter and dust off the dance moves, as you hear the much-loved ABBA repertoire performed the way only Björn Again does!
The Selecter
Lakeside StageWe 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!
Stereotonics
Arrow Stage, Music ActSince forming in mid 1999, Stereotonics fast became one of the UK's leading tribute bands.
With the same vocal style as Kelly Jones, lead singer, Paul, has fined tuned the sound of the band to make it as close to the real thing as possible.
Using the same guitars and wearing the same clothes, watching Stereotonics could almost be like watching the real Stereophonics!
Space Cowboy
Arrow Stage, Music ActA funk filled, non stop anthem tribute to Jamiroquai, the amazing Space Cowboy will be landing at Camper Calling 2022. Bringing to life the music and hits you guys know and love, you’d be virtually insane to miss this one!
Wille & The Bandits
Arrow Stage, Music ActEssentially Wille and the Bandits is a classic blues rock band much in the vein of Cream or The Jimi Hendrix experience. But in a similar way to how these bands pushed the genre in their time, Wille and the Bandits try to take their sound beyond what is expected of such a traditional line up.
The use of more bizarre instrumentation and eclectic influences in the song writing often pushes them more into a world music or progressive category. Having toured with artists such as Deep Purple through to the John Butler trio and played major festivals across Europe, the band seem to leave an equally astounding impression on audiences of all ages and musical backgrounds with their energetic and soulful performances.
Captain Accident
Music Act, Arrow StageCaptain Accident is a reggae/ska/soul artist who creates a unique blend of rock-driven soulful roots reggae, ska, dub and rocksteady at his home studio in Cardiff. This sound is then brought to life on stage with the help of a collective of the finest musicians for an energetic live show guaranteed to get people up dancing. With soulful vocals, soaring twin guitars and a truly infectious groove, there’s no standing still when Captain Accident and his clumsy companions hit the stage.
Uncle Funk's Disco Inferno
Lakeside Stage, Music ActGet 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!
The Institutes
Arrow Stage, Music ActThe Institutes have wasted no time in becoming national radio’s favourite new Indie rock band, with support from BBC Radio 6 and Radio X catapulting them into the ears of music fans across the country. Formed in Coventry in 2018, this four-piece got to defining their sound in time for recording two sets worth of huge tracks, most of which you might hear The Institutes play on their US tour in 2021.
Sounding somewhere between New Order, The La ‘s and 80s band The Primitives, they bring along a much needed pick me up to these dark days.
Recalling to some extent the euphoric rush of The Las, the heartbeat of The Stone Roses and the melodies of The Lightning Seeds this is a band that relies on songs and they have a massive arsenal of killer tunes.
Mellowmatic
Lakeside Stage, Music ActFronted 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.
Stephen Lewis & The Big Band of Fun
Arrow Stage, Music ActAll the way from New Brunswick, Canada we welcome Stephen Lewis & The Big Band of Fun!

The Novus
Lakeside Stage, Music ActLegends 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.
Scouting For Girls
Music ActThe boys are back in town!
Kicking off Camper Calling in style, your Thursday night headliners are Scouting for Girls!
Their infectious pop music will have you jumping around in no time, with hits like ‘She’s So Lovely’, ‘Heartbeat’ and ‘This Ain’t A Love Song’, it’s impossible not to sing along with these feel good legends.
