Sea Sessions 2014

Furious-Red

Sea Sessions Surf & Music Festival

We will release our first batch of artists next Wednesday. There will be more announcements over the next few weeks. This batch covers a range of genres and includes one act we just had to bring back from last year

Can see the act being brought back is The Minutes since they didnt get a chance to play last year due to high winds in the Vodafone Stage

DJ Yoda with another 4hr set is the rumour but yeah I reckon the Minutes also as they were pretty popular a couple years ago.

Be interesting to hear what headliners they get. They very much dont follow a trend. Which is a good thing really as not point it being a clone of every other festival.

Such a great festival cannot wait hopefully we get some half decent weather this year

The weather the last two years has been a joke,surely were going to get a break this year with any luck.

The Dandy Warhols!! Mon dieu, I wet myself with excitement! They are so uber-cool, it is unreal! Saw them twice before - in Auckland in 2004 & in Marlay Park, supporting, I think, Morrissey!
I'm in!

DJ YODA returns, highlight of my 2013!

Anybody have any tips on accommodation for the festival? Missus doesn't fancy camping and I don't fancy paying through the nose for a hotel.

We used to rent a house down there usually between 6 of us. Obviously you'd need more than two to keep the costs down. Well worth it, beats living like a hobo for the weekend.

Ok guys full lineup will be out this Wednesday so stay tuned. May even give away a ticket or 2 too celebrate!!

Line up is actually quite good this year, Dandy Warhols, Ella Eyre, Hudson Taylor are all reasonably well known acts, makes it actually worth paying the 100 euro for a ticket.

Could Franz Ferdinand be added? Announcement due tomorrow and they just played dublin last night

jossys_giants

Franz Ferdinand would be a clinker of an addition. (thought the final annoucement was Wed?) Hotel sorted, always a great time at the Sea Sessions

Hopefully the weather is good this year

I looked at their schedule and they are playing Paris Fri/Sat that weekend but have a gap of a week before the next show. Hmmmm probably unlikely but not impossible.

BadTurtle

Kelis is a great headliner. Some great songs in her back catalogue.

Looks like The Strypes have a headline slot?

Ah was hoping Flight Factories would do FF or maybe EP

gary_is_hip

I'm so delighted to see Kelis and Flight Facilities announced, makes it well worth the money now along with Ella Eyre and Dandy Warhols. Definitely their strongest line up ever.

jossys_giants

very unwhelmed to be honest with the kelis and the strypes as the 2 remaining headliners. The strypes are a decent enough band but not headliner material and kelis, meh!
plenty of good dj's and bands though in the lineup

looking forward to it, always a brilliant weekend

BadTurtle

Kelis is a bigger act than they had any right to expect.

RebelButtMunch

What's the camping situation like? I don't particularly need any luxury, but really drunk kids getting aggressive and wrecking the place I could do without in the middle of the night.

RebelButtMunch

Le bump. Anyone know how civilised this festival is? Thanks.

It gets sacked by barbarians on a nightly basis

Is that on a website somewhere? seasessions.com hasn't updated their blog in ages.
