Everyone’s favourite cheeky Canadian chappy and purveyor of “jizz jazz” is back at End of the Road for 2026. McBriare Samuel Lanyon DeMarco last headlined the Woods Stage in 2017 (he also graced the Garden Stage in 2015), and for 2026 he’s kicked his various trademark vices and is bringing an altogether older, wiser vibe to the festival. On his 2025 album Guitar, he looks back on his salad days from a place of calm, reflecting on a youth thoroughly lived. Forgoing the synths and stripping the music right back to guitar, bass and a smattering of drums that underpin his gentle crooning, we’re looking forward to some old faves wafting out over Larmer Tree Gardens alongside the new.
