The party doesn’t stop at Y Not when the headliner finishes – late night DJs keep the energy going until the early hours. This year Switch presents some massive names heading to Derbyshire… On Saturday night don’t miss Veteran jungle/drum n bass producer and DJ SHY FX, who’s scored several UK pop hits such as ‘Shake Ur Body’ (with T Power featuring Di),‘Roll the Dice’ (with Lily Allen and Stamina MC), and ‘Original Nuttah’, his groundbreaking 1994 single with UK Apachi, which was one of jungle’s first UK Top40 hits. Also on Friday catch SIGMA – UK drum n bass duo’s repertoire promises a sonic journey like no other, including their smash hits ‘Nobody to Love’ and ‘Changing’ featuring Paloma Faith, to collaborations with top artists like with DJ Fresh, Take That and John Newman.
Y Not Festival can also share their huge comedy line-up, taking over the Flamingo Jack’s tent over the weekend. Headlining the Saturday is the hilarious stand-up comic Milton Jones, known for his one-liners involving puns delivered in his deadpan and slightly neurotic style. On Sunday headliner Emmanuel Sonubi will take the stage – the East Londoner started his comedy career only a few years ago, but has become a regular favourite on the live comedy circuit. Across the weekend catch sets from Tamer Kattan, Matt Reed, Tom Wrigglesworth, Scott Bennet, Kazeem Jamal, Karen Bayley and Andre Vincent. Flamingo Jack’s will also see the beloved Barrioke featuring Shaun Williamson, a DJ set from the one and only Bez from Happy Mondays, plus The Amy Winehouse Band, the musicians who used to play with Amy now performing her songs.
