More additions confirmed

The organisers of The Green Man have confirmed another batch of new additions.

Hidden in the black mountains, The Green Man is one of Britain's most idiosyncratic events. In the past the festival has invited Celtic druids to bless the site in case of rain, and their free-thinking spreads through every aspect of the event.

Continuing to expand, Green Man recently added several new names to its line up. The Tallest Man On Earth will return to Brecon Beacons for the first time since 2010, bringing with them a new album.

'There's No Leaving No' is due to be released in June, with The Tallest Man On Earth set to unveil the new material at the Green Man. Elsewhere, fans can soak up sets from the John Leckie-produced London based collective AHAB, while former Gorky’s man Richard James will bring his pastoral, acoustic loveliness to the Welsh site.

Other newcomers include David McCaffrey and One Sixth Of Tommy, while the Green Man have also confirmed a set from The Bees.

Based on the Isle of Wight, The Bees are responsible for crafting some absolutely stunning psychedelic melodies. A true festival band, the indie collective will decamp to Brecon Beacons for the weekend this summer.

Tickets are on sale now.
