Jools Holland returns to Maidstone with another magical combination of artists playing live together in the studio for one night only. Foals, Squeeze, My Morning Jacket, Rickie Lee Jones and Disclosure featuring Sam Smith and Kwabs, it's like Woodstock 2015 on television!
From Oxford and returning to the show come Foals, premiering their fourth album What Went Down, their loudest, heaviest and funkiest to date as they start to play in the big league. Jools's old friends Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford reformed Squeeze a little while ago and now they are back with their fourteenth studio album From the Cradle to the Grave, in which they reflect on the pleasures and pitfalls of middle-age and maturity in their first collection of new songs in the 21st century! Louisville's My Morning Jacket are led by singer-songwriter Jim James and remain as stubbornly original and yet in thrall to the alternative AOR of the 70s on their latest album The Waterfall. California's Rickie Lee Jones recorded her latest album The Other Side of Desire in New Orleans and will be accompanied by Jools and musicians on a couple of songs with that unmistakable Louisiana groove and her breakout late 70s hit Chuck E's In Love. Last but by no means least, welcome back Disclosure, the London-based songwriter-producer brothers Howard and Guy Lawrence, who helped put house back on the map and who are bringing along Kwabs to perform tracks from their shortly to be released second album Caracal.
