"It's with great honour that I accepted the invitation to be the curator for the 2014 Roadburn festival. I'm pretty damn far from being a professional booker / promotor, and I've never been part in choosing bands for an event apart from bands that Opeth has toured with. So this is a first for me, but I have to say I'm very excited. I've reached out to a handful of my favourite bands from the past and present. As of now it looks like it will be an amazing musical event."
Expect a celebration of progressive rock, psychedelic folk, the heavy 70s and beyond.
Artist in residence
Beginning a new chapter of their ongoing legacy, Bristol's psych rock band The Heads will follow in the footsteps of Enslaved, Circle, Justin K Broadrick and Neige (Alcest) as artist in residence at the 2014 Roadburn Festival.
John McBain (of Monster Magnet and Wellwater Conspiracy fame) will join The Heads for this and new recordings.
