Wallasey-born rock band The Boo Radleys have been added to the Blackpool: Indie By The Sea line-up for the 2027 May Bank Holiday Weekend.
The festival runs on Saturday 2 and 2 May, and will bring together bands and songwriters who defined indie music from the eighties, to the Britpop era, and beyond.
The Boo Radleys alongside other new acts have been added, including: Sleeper, Jesus Jones, A Certain Ratio and Nigel Clark of Dodgy will join an already stacked line-up headlined by Ocean Colour Scene, Peter Hook & The Light, Embrace and Black Grape.
Saturday's entire line-up features The Boo Radleys alongside Ocean Colour Scene, Embrace, Paul Draper, Space, Northside, Jesus Jones, Ben Ottewell of Gomez and Ian Prowse of Pele and Amsterdam, with broadcaster John Robb hosting the after-party.
Sunday sees Peter Hook & The Light, Black Grape, Sleeper, The Wedding Present, A Certain Ratio, The Primitives, Cud, Nigel Clark, James Walsh of Starsailor and Chris Helme of The Seahorses take the stage.
Happy Mondays and Black Grape's Bez will keep the party going into the night at festival afterparties.
The festival, which is being described by organisers as the 'ultimate North West Indie weekender', still has further names to be announced, so hold onto your guitars!
