Few bands are as at home in a field as Levellers. Formed in Brighton in 1988, they mix punk energy with fiddle, banjo and mandolin, and write songs about community, freedom and standing up for what’s right. Their 1991 album Levelling the Land became a folk-rock classic, and in 1994 they headlined Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage to one of the biggest crowds the festival has ever seen. A year later Zeitgeist went to number one.
Singing along to One Way, What a Beautiful Day and Just the One is a festival rite of passage. The band know festivals inside out. They have run their own, Beautiful Days in Devon, since 2003, and still release new music, most recently the 2020 album Peace. Expect a Saturday night set that gets the whole field dancing, from the front rows to the families on the hill.
