On August 27, 28 and 29 Reverence Festival returns to Valada, Portugal, to offer up another weekender of quality psychedelia. This monster line-up showcases the very best in stoner, grunge, shoegaze and doom, with more acts to be announced in the coming weeks.

UK psych breakthroughs The Horrors are headlining with Californian doom legends Sleep, as French post-rock heroes Alcest  star at the top of the bill next to Amon Düül II.

Ex Brian Jonestown Massacre, Joel Gion & The Primary Colours also head up the powerhouse weekender with transcendental psych soundscapes and blistering walls of feedback, whilst Ukrainian rockers Stoner Jesus dish up their own divine take on the genre.

And if that's not enough, Reverence Festival is somewhat of a marathon, where hardcore fans can bask in Valada’s Summer heat as late as 6am. So this year will debut the ‘Sunrise Psychedelic Jam’ which will see members of various bands on the bill play together while the sun rises over the river.

For more information, the full line-up so far and tickets, head on over to the festival website. 

Taking place at  London's SCALA on Pentonville Road, London on Saturday May 16, the Shiiine On Weekender Offender will fittingly begin with its own one-day mini festival - 6 months before the full four day event in Minehead.  Featuring acts plucked from the Shiiine On Weekender's line up and beyond,  the SOWO will be a night of special live performances from iconic bands and classic DJs.

The SOWO launch party will see legendary Electro-Hip-Hop splicing renegades Stereo MC's headline the Room 1 stage with a special performance of their seminal 1992 album Connected live and in full, plus supporting performances earlier on from Northside, The Space Monkeys and Winachi Tribe.
 
Upstairs, Room 2 will feature even more bands including The Frank and Walters, James Atkin (EMF), Psyence and The Spitting Pips to get you in the mood for  a whole weekend of band paradise to come this November.

In addition, a third room will be hosted by casual clothes label, Weekend Offender with Hacienda legend Dave Booth DJing.

Doors will open at 8pm with a curfew 4pm, promising 8 hours of  thrilling live entertainment.
