NewsBright Eyes pulls out of V Festival line-upBright Eyes has pulled out of his scheduled V Festival appearance this weekend (August 18 and 19) due to illness. The singer-songwriter - real name Conor Oberst - had been due to headline the Virgin Mobile Union stage at the Chelmsford leg of the V Festival on Saturday (August 18), and the Stafford leg on Sunday (August 19). Bright Eyes will be replaced by Mexican acoustic guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela, who will now headline the VMU stage on both legs of the festival. The band's shows in Bristol (August 15), Liverpool (16) and Nottingham (17) are also cancelled. The Donnas reveal details of 'Bitchin' new album The Donnas have announced that they will self-release their seventh album, 'Bitchin', on September 18 in the US and October 1 in the UK. The follow-up to 2004's 'Gold Medal' features 14 tracks co-produced by Jay Ruston (The Polyphonic Spree, Meat Loaf) and sees the band developing a fresh take on their sound free from label pressures, according to a band spokesperson. "We know what we want, we know how to get it, and we are ready and willing to take it. It's almost like we have come full circle," said guitarist Allison Robertson in a statement. "Maybe in some way we are still the same dorky pre-teens who started playing because we love rock n' roll. The difference is that now we are completely comfortable and confident with who we are." 'Bitchin' will be released via The Donnas' new label, Purple Feather Records. They're expected to announce autumn tour dates shortly. |
