Jack Penate and That Petrol Emotion join T in the Park


Jack Peñate is back and will be playing the Futures Stage at T in the Park on Sunday 12th July. For his second album he decided to rip it up and start again and the offering 'Everything Is New’ is just that. Produced by one of the hottest British production talents around, Paul Epworth (who is also responsible for albums by fellow T in the Park artists Bloc Party and Friendly Fires), Peñate’s second album is an ambitious, lo-fi soul record which, from the sound of recent killer single 'Tonight’s Today’, is going to get the Futures Stage crowd jumping to some top tracks.Reforming in 2008 after more than a decade on hiatus, That Petrol Emotion continue a string of successful reunion shows with a slot opening the Radio 1/NME Stage on Saturday 11th July. Critically lauded for their highly skilled musicianship, intense performances, diverse influences and political agenda, the band were considered musical pioneers and we know the Balado massive will give their return a warm reception when they kick off proceedings on the middle day of T in the Park. Filling the same slot on the final day of revelry are Northern Irish rockers In Case of Fire who have been lined up to open the Radio 1/NME Stage on Sunday 12th July. Tipped as a top new talent, the band who have been described by NME as a 'skyscraping pop-metal hybrid', were the viewer’s choice of bands to watch out for on MTV’s 2008 'Spanking New’ coverage and were the opening act on the Kerrang! tour this year. The three-piece released their debut album 'Align The Planets’ just last week and no doubt the Balado crowd will greet their set with the electric enthusiasm that provides T in the Park with it’s globally recognised atmosphere. Manchester’s Delphic take to the Futures Stage on Saturday 11th July and will bring a strong dose of 1980s nostalgia to the T in the Park proceedings. Influenced by Factory Records, the Hacienda and acid house they play electronic music with a full band line up and will be supplying Balado with some massive hands in the air moments as their superior brand of indie dance takes over the crowds in the Futures Stage tent that is the home to the hottest new talent at T in the Park this summer.
