Popaganda returns in August, and after booking from the second tier of British indie bands last year with The Vaccines, they’ve upgraded this year with the genuine class of Franz Ferdinand. The Scottish art-rock gang aren’t, debatably, even the main draw here – Veronica Maggio, Tove Styrke, Little Dragon, First Aid Kit and Jenny Wilson all have solid claims to be the biggest act on the bill. Regardless of where you fall on that question, it all means it’s a super stacked line-up for this year’s festival, especially when you consider that Hanna Järver, Jens Lekman, Pale Honey, Slowdive and somehow even more are also playing. Eriskdalbadet is the place to be this year.
