The opening act on the main stage today was Gaz Coombes, Supergrass frontman and now solo artist whose latest record Matador was well received by the crowd.

Next up the mighty Johnny Marr, formerly of The Smiths, played a set spanning his career adding a cover of I Fought The Law by The Clash and closed with a mammoth rendition of the classic How Soon is Now?

The Kaiser Chiefs were next up, with a storming set including huge hits Ruby and I Predict A Riot that saw the crowd jumping and singing along.

Artists playing across the other stages on the site included The Rifles, Slydigs, Sleaford Mods and Vintage Trouble.
