Texan boogie legends ZZ Top have been announced as headliners for the main stage for one night of the weekend event, held at Mote Park, Maidstone, Kent, which caters for classic rock, prog, blues and outlaw country across four stages. other acts announced include former Georgia Satellite man Dan Baird, Quireboys, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Monster Trucks, Jared James Nichols, Magnum and Big Boy Bloater.
