Beardyman
Friday at 17:45
Indoor Stage
UK Beatbox champion twice over, Beardyman - main support for Grooverider, Groove Armada, the Beastie Boys, Fat Boy Slim and Underworld. Festival headliner at Bestival, Get Loaded and Rise, TV star on Lilly Allen, Graham Norton, MTV and C4 and appearances on Radio 1, 3 & 4, 6Music, XFM, Kiss FM and Kerrang plus most recently one of the highlights of the very first YouTubeLIVE! event. Is there any more this man can do?
At fifteen, an introduction to drum 'n' bass led to his long-standing obsession with music technology. Now, in his live shows, as well as world-class solo human-beatbox, Beardyman uses cutting-edge sound-mangling technology to create dance-inducing layered rhythms, breath-taking soundscapes, and fully produced choons, all improvised and created entirely from his voice. Expect a debut album with extra special guests later in the year.
