Expect riotous bluespunk from Thekla regulars Mother Vulture while post punk band The New Cut bring modern themes and wry lyricism.
Clemencie combine the dark synth soundscape of Wolf Alice and danceable pop feel of Blondie while Sober Sundays, the band formed at Bath Spa University, have built a devoted following for their heartfelt songs.
Dot To Dot Festival booker Ben Ryles said: “Supporting the local scene is a vital part of Dot To Dot Festival and we’re really excited to be shining a light on some incredible regional acts with this latest wave.
“Showcasing rising artists across the greatest grassroots venues is right at the heart of D2D, so supporting the local music scene is completely intertwined with that ethos.
“We look forward to seeing many of these artists on festival line-ups for many years to come!”
