The Summers End Festival, which will take place at Lydney Town Hall on October 7, 8, 9 2011, is pleased to announce the first two bands to take the stage this year.
"We are thrilled that Arena will headline the Saturday night of the Festival. The band will need no introduction to most prog fans, and with Messrs Pointer, Nolan, Mitchell and Salmon now joined by the superb Paul Manzi on lead vocals and a new album in the works, this year will see the band active once more. This will be a rare chance to see the band live in the UK in 2011".

Following the hugely successful appearance of Phideaux in 2010, they are delighted to announce that they have another US band this year, the terrific K2. The brainchild of bassist Ken Jaquess, the band also boasts the talents of Spock's Beard's much-loved Ryo Okumoto on keyboards plus new members Josh Gleason (vocals) and Karl Johnson (guitar), who all perform on the band's excellent second album "Black Garden" released last year.
Don't forget our Sister Festival FUSED – prog and symphonic metal – taking place at Lydney on April 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Early booking is recommended! Full details at: ww.fusedfestival.co.uk
