Rag'n'Bone Man has been announced as the first headliner for Standon Calling 2019. 

The singer-songwriter, who was one of the biggest-selling artists of last year with his debut album Human, will appear on the main stage at the festival in Hertfordshire on Friday 26 July. 

"Standon Calling has been one of those festivals I'll always tell my mates to go to because the vibe is always great, so I'm pretty hyped to be playing it again next hear," he said. 

This year's festival was a resounding success thanks to a vibrant, diverse lineup of talented new and established acts, along with a wealth of family activities on offer. 

The Independent hosted the Laundry Meadows stage which included performances by Morcheeba, Gengahr, Shame, Little Simz, Dream Wife and The Horrors. 

Tickets for Standon Calling 2019 are on sale now.
