“As always it has taken a lot of long nights and high stress levels to get us ready for the weekend but we’re really excited to showcase some amazing music to festival goers this weekend.
“The big top tents are up, the stage is almost set and we can’t wait to bring people on the next part of our musical adventure," said Craig.
