Zenyth confirmed for Moonfest, Wiltshire, includes support from Pete Doherty

Zenyth

The fast rising Cardiff rockers making waves this year in the UK festival scene are one of the Top Acts billed on the main stage they will be supported by a solo performance by Pete Doherty & the cult classic rock band Leafhound and will be supporting The Australian Pink Floyd and Ozric Tentacles on the Saturday of the 3 day festival.

Zenyths fresh ballsy rock and their powerful sound & stage presence is gathering big attention that means these guys are set for big things watch out for their single release on the 14^th July 2008– Mr. Nobody.

Pete Doherty

Notorious tabloid darling and now Marlborough-based indie pop star Pete Doherty is to play a solo set. There had been some confusion as to whether he would appear as he has recently been serving a 14-week stretch for drug offences in Wormwood Scrubs prison. However, the star was controversially released early on Tuesday 6th May.

A new festival on the block in Wiltshire will boast some great musical acts on the bill when it's held in August.

Wiltshire plays host to numerous outdoor music events over the summer months each year, and in 2008 there's a new kid on the block.

The inaugural 'Moonfest' is to be held at Storridge Farm near Westbury over the weekend of Friday 29th-Sunday 31st August and numerous top international acts have already signed up to appear.

Friday sees a dance night featuring DJ sets on the Main Stage but the Saturday and Sunday calendar is packed with well-known names.

Ozric Tentacles

If you were an outdoor gig-goer in the nineties, you can't fail to have seen Somerset space rockers Ozric Tentacles also set for the Main Stage on Saturday. They were ubiquitous on the festival circuit in that era, and 27 albums later, they are still going strong.

And headlining the Main Stage on Saturday are top international tribute act, The Australian Pink Floyd. As there is little chance of ever seeing the original band reunite for a tour, The Australian Pink Floyd are considered the next best thing to seeing the real thing. They will also be bringing their stunning light show.

Back to the Eighties

Sunday on the Main Stage at Moonfest is dedicated to The Eighties. Things kick off with Into the Bleach - a Blondie tribute act before the real fun starts with a succession of top bands from the era that taste forgot.

Heaven 17

Hip soulsters Curiosity Killed the Cat, funksters Shakatak, soul trio Imagination, popsters Go West and synth poppers Heaven 17 are all set to appear. This a line-up no Wiltshire Eighties kid should miss out on!

Fans of the many talented local bands and singers Wiltshire has to offer will not miss out either.

Over the whole weekend, on two separate stages in The Sovereign Marquee and The Riffs Marquee, local acts such as Rob Sharples, The Doubtful Guest, The Alfonz and The Mentalists will be playing live.

In total, nearly 50 Wiltshire bands and musicians are set to appear at Moonfest over the festival weekend.

Weekend (£79.00) and single day (£39.00) tickets are available now which you can purchase at the official Moonfest website via the website www.moonfest.co.uk. Camping site tickets are also available (£12.00).
