Caravan Get High Voltage!

Despite a short 45 minute set Caravan took the Prog Stage by storm at the highly prestigious High Voltage Festival in Victoria Park London UK during the afternoon of Saturday 23rd July.

The band wish to thank everyone at the High Voltage Festival and of course you lot who turned up in your hundreds to watch them play. The band had a lovely time. Friendly helpful festival staff and security really do help to make a brighter festival experience for artists!

P.S. The food was also lovely.

The High Voltage set-list was:

Memory Lain Hugh
Headloss
Golf Girl
I’m On My Way
Nightmare
Nine Feet Underground

P.s. We made a timelapse video of the gig and uploaded the results accompanied by an old favourite onto the Official Caravan YouTube channel: [ High Voltage Timelapse ]

I personally wish to thank Geoffrey Richardson for a lovely day out with a few band stories and humour along the way but mostly for generously providing a very last minute lift to the festival. Ta very much – Nick S.

I can confirm that Caravan did indeed take the Prog Stage by storm at High Voltage & I think most of the audience around me thought so too!

really enjoyed the set at High Voltage – never seen the band in daylight before. Had way more people watching than BJH later on.

I showed the lineup of High Voltage to several people all of whom said “Ooh Caravan!” amidst what was a very strong lineup. Fantastic to see Caravan back gigging again – see you again soon.

Caravan were fantastic at the high voltage I was enjoying it so much I was n’t sure if I was going to explode or self combust – neither state recommended for a man of 46. I have got around having to deal with this criminally short set by booking tickets for Leamington spa and Edinburgh. Before this I thought I’d
blown the chance of ever seeing caravan but I have made up some ground this year at last
