MIDI Festival announces first wave of artists

MIDI Festival have announced the initial lineup of their 2013 programme. Entering into its ninth year, the festival will take place on the glorious French Riviera and features the likes of Dummy favourites Mount Kimbie, Christopher Owens, King Krule, AlunaGeorge and Mykki Blanco alongside current festival stalwarts The Horrors. One of the venues for the festival is a race track, and another is a beach. That definitely beats your average tents-in-a-muddy-field-in-Norfolk sort of affair we have on these shores.

Tickets are £71 for a three-day pass. For more info, check the MIDI website.
