News

→ There are now just four weeks to go until we welcome you on site! If you have questions before that, we hopefully cover them off on the info section of our website and in our social posts as we approach the festival.

This year’s event is sold out but for anyone still needing tickets there’s a National Express comp open (scroll to the end for the info) and Twickets will be our official resale partner this year (details on that soon)

→ Also: our EOTR 2025 Poster Competition is still running and gives entrants the chance to see their design featured on a limited-edition EOTR 2025 screen-printed poster (and get a pair of weekend tickets if they win). As a reminder, the artwork should include the festival name/dates/location, and be composed of no more than three colours. The design should be available as a layered vector file (.AI) or a layered PSD. Your artboard should be set up to A2, with a 3mm bleed.

→ From Erol Alkan, the legendary DJ behind iconic electroclash-championing club night TRASH, to Queer House Party, the award winning collective celebrating radical self-expression and queer dancefloor chaos, there’s truly something for everyone in this year’s lineup of DJs and selectors. More info on them here

→ Introducing: The End of the Road Run Club 🏃✨

⚉  Ryan Davis & the Roadhouse Band released their new record New Threats From The Soul last week via Tough Love and it’s receiving universal acclaim, with Pitchfork calling it “rich and dazzling” and giving it a Best New Music badge and Uncut saying it’s “singular and strong enough to put Davis in league with some of the very best American songwriters of the past and present” . The record also features fellow Kentucky native Will Oldham, who “has never sounded quite so exuberant and soulful on record” (Pitchfork)

⚉ The New Eves, a quartet from Brighton blending “Velvets-style drone rock, trad folk [and] anarcho-punk”, released their brilliant debut album The New Eve is Rising on Transgressive and it’s Alexis Petridis’ album of the week

⚉ Yoshika Colwell released her “honest and real” (KLOF) debut album On The Wing on Blue Flowers Music and dropped by the Cerys Matthewsshow on 6 Music on Sunday for a beautiful live session, playing tracks including “In Bloom” and “There’s Got To Be A Loser Babe”

⚉ Black Fondu, the enigmatic South London based rapper-producer, released new single “im not sleeping” on Scenic Route Records

⚉ Tyler Ballgame, the Rough Trade-signed LA-based crooner, released his Alan Watts inspired new track “Got A New Car”, a song about “spiritual awakening… realizing I’m not this set of stories. I don’t need to attach to stuff around expectations, which is 90 percent of human suffering. There’s so much peace under personality, there’s so much peace in the cessation of the active mind and surrendering to the Now”

⚉  Silver Gore, the Island Records-signed London Duo made up of singer-drummer Ava Gore and producer Ethan P. Flynn, released their debut single for the label “Dogs In Heaven”, inspired by Gore watching the animated film All Dogs Go to Heaven with her family dog as a child.
