The 'Burn added to IoW & Glastonbury lineups

United Kingdom | by John Bownas | 05 May 2003

With a sound headily reminiscent of festival favourites The Levellers, The 'Burn are a band it's probably worth checking out.

The 'Burn

When you hear 'Calling All' from the Sally O'Mattress album then you'll instantly find your ears conjouring up images of our old festival favourites The Levellers. Interesting then that a certain music paper gave them a great review a while back...after all, following that incident with Jeremy Leveller's earthy and aromatic riposte to a poor write-up you'd think that the publication in question would be switched off this sort of guitarsy folk-rock forever!

Band/journo wars aside, The 'Burn are a band that fit perfectly into the festival scene - so check them out if you haven't had the pleasure yet.

They play the Isle of Wight on 14th June and they'll grace the Other Stage at Glastonbury on 28th June.
