Four Tet, Father John Misty, Idles and Sharon Van Etten are among the acts announced for Green Man 2019. 

The festival, set in the dramatic surroundings of the Black Mountains in the Brecon Beacons, Wales, is returning for its 17th year – taking place from Thursday 15 August to the 18th. 

Four Tet has been revealed as the first headliner, while Father John Misty is back after his performance on the Green Man stage in 2015. Brit-nominees IDLES are making their Green Man debut following the release of their critically acclaimed second album Joy as an Act of Resistance last year. 

Other acts to be announced include Australian singer-songwriter Julia Jacklin, Belgian-Egyptian artist Tamino (whose debut Amir was named in The Independent's top 10 albums of 2018), Stella Donnelly, Art School Girlfriend, New York punk rockers Bodega, and Nilufer Yanya.
