The Horrors and Franz Ferdinand For SOS 4.8 Festival

January 14, 2010
The Horrors and Franz Ferdinand For SOS 4.8 FestivalThe Horrors, Franz Ferdinand and Fatboy Slim are amongst the acts confirmed for the third SOS 4.8 Festival in Spain.

Nada Surf and Madness will also be rubbing shoulders with a host of Spanish bands including Delorean, Love of Lesbian, We are Standard and Joe Crepusculo. More acts will be confirmed soon.

Taking place over the May Bank Holiday weekend – April 30th to May 1st – the urban festival in Murcia, south-east Spain melds contemporary art with performances and conferences.

Tickets for the two day event cost a highly palatable £34.99, not including accommodation.

Last year’s sold-out festival boasted the likes of PJ Harvey, The Prodigy, Peaches, 2ManyDJs and Underworld.
