Listen to this 2000trees playlist curated by festival booker James Scarlett

Next month, 2000trees returns for a stunning weekend of grassroots British rock and alternative alongside some of the hottest bands in Europe, the United States and beyond.

Headlined by Bullet For My Valentine, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes and SOFT PLAY, the Gloucestershire extravaganza also features a bunch of K! cover stars including Bob Vylan, Loathe, Empire State Bastard, Witch Fever, Holding Absence and Employed To Serve.

For a little taster of what the weekender has in store, festival mainman James Scarlett has created this 12-track playlist featuring some of his favourite bands playing this July.

"We’ve got some of the most exciting new artists – that I’m confident will be dominating the rock world for years to come – alongside some absolute legends of the scene at Trees this year," says James.

"I’ve always felt what really makes our 2000trees line-ups special is the strength in depth, and 2023 is certainly no different – and hopefully this playlist captures that! There truly is something for everyone, so grab a ticket whilst you still can and come see why 2000trees is the best independent festival around."

2000trees takes place at Upcote Farm in Cheltenham from July 5 – 8. Get your tickets now.
