Damon Albarn talks up next weeks OneFest

Last month we announced Damon Albarn's Dr. Dee as headliner of the first festival of the year, OneFest (formerly known as Honeyfest).

Taking place in the middle of beautiful crop-circle country and close to the famous chalk white horses of Wiltshire, we are now able to reveal the full details of this year's festival, including the completed line-up. Headliner Damon Albarn spoke of his excitment at playing his magical new songs:

"I'm really looking forward to the festival; Wiltshire in Spring feels like a perfect setting for Dr Dee songs. Some of my favourite musicians are playing with me, it will be special."

Albarn will perform songs and music from Dr. Dee - created by Albarn and Rufus Norris - at OneFest on April 14th. He will be joined onstage by a cast of musicians and singers from the original production including Madou Diabate.

Also featuring rising 'Indie Folk' band of the moment, Dry the River, the acts on this year's line-up include India's leading alternative folk act Raghu Dixit, rising young female singer-songwriters Rae Morris, Jodie Marie and Michele Stodart (of The Magic Numbers and her band) as well as Nick Harper (son of the legendary Roy).

A second stage of upcoming, new artists has been curated by BBC Introducing - full list of acts below.
