Hedsor 2011 is delighted to announce an incredible music line up presented by Lyrix Organix, one of Glastonbury Festival’s leading producers. We are delighted to announce our headline act, Shlomo. The lineup also includes the indie sounds of Rocketeer and 5 Cent Theatre to the charismatic Hip Hop of Natty Defcon and blistering soul from Aina, to the Latin Ska Hip Hop of Left Step Band.
Not only is Shlomo performing solo, he will also create wild impro collaborations with many of the other acts during the night. On the decks, straight from Glastonbury and France we have the incredible DJ Anon and DJ Nico D. Further acts to follow including a surprise headline act!

Hedsor 2011 is proud to continue our support of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and every penny raised will go to their emergency programmes throughout the world. MSF is one of the leading charities helping with the East Africa Famine currently and was one of the first charities into Misrata and Fukushima. The inaugural Hedsor 2009 raised enough to vaccinate over 72,500 children against measles, protecting them from a disease that kills over 190,000 children each year, and this year we plan to smash that target.
