Astral Festival VIII at Strange Brew
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Annual sell-out gathering of outer orbit psych-rock madness from Bristol’s Stolen Body outpost. A proper tour of trance-inducing guitar music with crushing improv grind/sludge from Holy Scum, Gnod’s cvlt-like doom-kraut, My Octopus Mind’s epic post-jazz-math-prog dementia and much much more."

Stolen Body Records presents Astral Festival. Heavy psychedelic/Hard Rock festival for Bristol.

Taking place over 2 days on April 29th and 30th in Bristol's favourite venue - Strange Brew. 2 stages over the 2 days. (SUNDAY TICKETS - hdfst.uk/E82900)

After last years 2 sold out days we're delighted to be back again. Taking place over the bank holiday weekend once again so you can get your lie in on Monday morning and think about how great the weekend was. As always thank you so much for the continued support. We're so stoked to get this festival up and running again, we're still building up again but we're getting there! Round 8 is a weekender again and promises to bring a treasure trove of psych, hard rock, kraut and generally something new for you to discover from bands from all over the world. Of course there will be a solid dose of Stolen Body records involved.

This year we hope to have food available, as well as some more treats to keep you entertained beyond the incredible music.

THANK YOU AND SEE YOU DOWN THE FRONT
