Eden Festival announces first acts

Alice Russell is one of the first acts announced for this year's Eden Festival

The Eden Festival has announced its first acts for this year's event on the Raehills Estate near Beattock.

Gogol Bordello, Alice Russell and Alabama 3 will feature at the festival which runs from 8 to 11 June.

Last month organisers reaffirmed their commitment to their south of Scotland venue after announcing a "sister" event in Croatia.

Further act announcements for the festival, first held in 2009, are scheduled in the weeks to come.
