Bradford's Threadfest have, as previously mentioned, added further acts to the bill for this year's event.

Hameed Brothers Qawwal, Arabrot (Norway) W/ John Doran, Local Improvisors (Jake Blanchard, Bridget Hayden & Sam McLoughlin), Mob Rules, Sophie Cooper and Gerrard Bell-Fife (a particular favourite at last year's event) will be joining the likes of Father Murphy, Sir Richard Bishop, War All The Time and a host of others at the city's Playhouse over the second last weekend of May (which is handily a Bank Holiday).

Ticket information (£27 for the weekend), band details etc. can all be found on the event website here.  

2015 finds Bradford's Threadfest festival of independent music and art undergoing a couple of changes. Previously a free, multi-venue affair this year's event brings all the entertainment under the one roof (at the city's Playhouse) and tickets are being introduced - £30 Early Bird ones for the whole course of the event (22 - 24 May) and a limited number of  pay-what-you-want ones on the door each day.
