compositions. |
 |
Chantelle Pike is a young singer/songwriter currently
living in Oxford, where her pure, gutsy and distinctive voice is well known
on the local scene, as is her mop of red hair. Refreshingly eluding categorisation,
Pike’s style is at once warm and edgy. Come and see for yourself. |

Alex Chapman normally plays solo, but when he was offered a spot at the Cornbury Music Festival on the condition that he had a band behind him, he stole one!

 |
Junkie Brush is an unruly bunch, often described as punk but they
like to think they're not really. Spiteful, fast, aggressive and nasty,
yes. Punk... maybe not. Someone called them "secret prog-rockers"
once. Only once though! |
Performance Timings: Saturday | Sunday
The gates to the arena open at 10:00 am each day. The Truck Festival Stage and the Riverside Stage will begin around midday with the Main Stage starting at 14:30 each day. The music will end at around 11pm on both days. Robert Plant is due to take to the Main Stage at approximately 21:15 with The Waterboys immediately before.
The headline acts (i.e. last on) are always shown at the top of each stage line up section above with the running order working in reverse order down the page.
Saturday will begin with Junkie Brush on the Riverside Stage and Fell City
Girl on the Truck Festival stage at around mid-day, then Rocco Deluca &
The Burden will open the Main Stage show at 14:30. With the main stage artists
performing for between 60 and 90 minutes each and a short interval for stage
changes between artists this should help you gauge the approximate timings for
the day.
Timings for the artists on the other stages will vary. However, in general Main and Second Stage artists alternate, with at most 15 minute overlap at the start or end of sets, but with the Riverside Stage running as well this year some tough choices will have to be made!
This information is provided here as a guide only and changes may be made to running order and timing without notice on the day.
