Returning this year after a short absence, Camden Crawl opted for a slightly more adventurous, electronic-led line up than usual.
Many accounts from the weekend noted the sparsity of some of the shows, however, with some notable slots – such as Shabazz Palaces – failing to bring in expected crowds.
Now reports are claiming that the organisers of the Camden Crawl have decided to place the event in voluntary liquidation.
Sadly, this seems to mean that the festival will not now pay some of the artists who are owed outstanding fees.

So Camden Crawl? Did you really just go into voluntary liquidation without paying us or anyone else?

#CamdenCrawl gone under without paying 2 Invada bands. They point blank refused to pay advance deposits & used the #TrustUs mantra throghout
