Green Man is a music festival set in the heart of the beautiful Brecon Beacons Wales. The river Usk flows around the perimeter and the Black Mountains stand impressively as the backdrop to the 'Mountain Stage'.

100% independent, it still draws a brilliant line up of performers each year, spanning the music spectrum-indie, psychedelia, Americana, electronica and folk, as well as DJs playing everything from dub-reggae to electro and stoner rock.

Kneecap

Kneecap are a frighteningly articulate rap group. Merging Irish with English, satire with socially conscious lyrics, and reality with absurdity, their lyrics often contain republican themes reinventing Irish rebel music.

Wet Leg

Amidst a night of hazy scenes in their native Isle of Wight, Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers found themselves at the summit of a Ferris wheel. They decided to start a band. The band is called Wet Leg. Arming themselves with guitars, a penchant for French disco, effervescent imaginations and a shared love of the The Ronettes and Jane Birkin, through to Ty Segall and Bjork, they set about making some recordings of their own.

Underworld

Underworld are a true one-off - at home headlining the world’s biggest festivals and events, playing underground techno clubs and warehouses, sound-tracking theatre productions or taking over art galleries, disused shoe shops and Japanese department stores. Having cemented their place in the ’90s underground techno scene, the group’s definitive breakthrough came in 1996 when their timeless anthem ‘Born Slippy (Nuxx)’ became the soundtrack of a generation after it was featured in the film Trainspotting. The success of that single catapulted the band from the underground into the heart of the mainstream. The following two decades saw them build on that success while never compromising; selling millions of albums, performing countless sold-out shows, providing scores to productions by Academy Award winning directors Anthony Minghella and Danny Boyle, exhibiting in galleries, and sound-tracking the Opening Ceremony to the London 2012 Olympic Games. The critical and commercial success of the band’s Grammy nominated 2016 album ‘Barbara Barbara, we face a shining future’ saw them headline stages at Coachella, Glastonbury and Summer Sonic.

TV On The Radio

Versatile, experimental group from New York, encompassing elements of jazz, rock, psychedelia and trip-hop in their music. Their masterful forays into different areas of music have involved collaborations with any number of big names, including Trent Reznor, Massive Attack and even David Bowie, who cites the group as a favourite of his.

Adwaith

Adwaith are Gwenllian, Hollie, Eva and Heledd from Carmarthen. BBC Music Introducing in Wales have supported them since they first uploaded their music in 2016. They are inspired by artists like The Slits, Happy Mondays and The Velvet Underground, and have been described as “the Welsh Slits playing Johnny Cash songs.”

W.H. Lung

While W.H. Lung’s name might suggest a nod to the likes of WH Auden and similarly austere literary figures, it actually comes from a Chinese supermarket in their native Manchester. This deliberate blurring of high and low culture is part of the appeal of the enigmatic three-piece (Joseph E on vocals/synths, Tom S on guitar and Tom P on bass), their songs juxtaposing simplicity with free-ranging experimentation. But even more key is their ability to seamlessly meld genres – krautrock, post-punk and synthpop, most prominently – to create songs that are fresh and exciting yet familiar-sounding and accessible.

Georgia Ruth

An addictive blend of soul, jazz, folk and hip-hop, influenced by the melancholy beauty of the Anne Briggs, Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell songs found in her mother's record collection. She is a highly talented harpist too. Raised bilingually in Aberystwyth, Wales, Georgia’s haunting voice has earned her favourable comparisons with the melancholy folk sirens of the late 60s. Her unusual harp playing was inspired more by the guitar on Bert Jansch, Meic Stevens and old folk revivalist records than by the classical method she was taught as a child. She has performed at Glastonbury, Green Man Festival, SWN and several other festivals
