TICKETS: NEARLY GAME, SET & MATCH

If are intending to play at Bella this year but you have still to acquire tickets, we strongly suggest you net them in the next week or it will almost certainly be game over.

We’re down to the last few hundred…

BLACKOUT AT BELLA…

Welsh alternative rock-pop bruisers The Blackout from Merthyr Tydfil join the Bella line-up. Inspired by the likes of Lostprophets, The Blackout have recorded four albums. Their latest ‘Hope’ came out in 2011 on the celebrated Cooking Vinyl label with whom they have signed a worldwide deal.

… AND THE MILK TO DELIVER THERE TOO

Also joining the line-up are: up-and-coming northern soul exponents The Milk,who have the horns, the hooks and the handclaps and will delight any Bella audience who enjoyed last year’s Eli Paperboy Reid performance; and KOBI, an alternative indie-rock band based in the Highlands; in hiatus since 2005, a newly energized KOBI re-emerged in summer 2011 with a fresh set of material and a renewed vigour to perform together.

LATE NIGHT BAND KARAOKE

And Scots karaoke band BandeMcokie will enable late night listeners in the Black isle Brewery Grassroots Stage to entertain their fellow audience members with band karaoke.

The late night slot on the same stage on the Saturday night will be filled by MacFloydplaying the whole of ‘Dark Side Of The Moon.’

SAVE THE PLANET – SHARE A CAR WITH A FRIEND

Belladrum Festival is working with goCarShare to help people share car journeys. It's a great way to save money if you are driving, or to head to the festival on the cheap if you need a lift. It'll help you cut your carbon, and as it is built around Facebook, you can find people who like the same music, or who have friends in common. For more info, visit gocarshare.com.
