Portishead To Curate 2011 ATP Festival In London

November 24, 2010
Portishead To Curate 2011 ATP Festival In LondonPortishead are set to curate a special two-day event for All Tomorrow’s Parties (ATP) in London next summer.

The band will headline both days of the festival at Alexandra Palace.

Other acts on the line-up include MF Doom, The Books and Company Flow, who will perform their first UK show in 10 years.

Beach House, Liars and Swans are also due to appear at the first-ever I'll Be Your Mirror event.

“Portishead have once again been given the horrendous task of joining up with our favourite festival in the world and choosing a dream list of bands we would like to play with - at least the ones that aren't dead or in jail,” said Portishead’s Geoff Barrow.

Additional acts will be announced in the coming months.

Tickets go on sale on Friday (November 26) at 9am.
