More massive names join the bill.
After the first round of acts for the annual Strawberry Fields festivals were revealed just last month, the second line-up announcement has just dropped today, led by popular house duo Booka Shade.
The group made up of Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier are often described as the veterans of the Frankfurt electro scene who also run their own dance label, Get Physical. It will mark Booka Shade's first appearance at the event since forming in the early 90's.
The German act will be joined by US electro producer Shigeto who will make his second appearance at The Wildlands this year. Known for his diverse sound, the Michigan-born DJ incorporates futuristic jazz beats into his sound, while also dabbling in both hip-hop and dance music.
