The first act to be announced for 2025 is JD McPherson, who plays Red Rooster following the release of his album Nite Owls, which blends rock ‘n’ roll, rockabilly and R&B with touches of glam, new wave, post-punk, and surf rock.

Also announced for the 2025 programme are guitarist and singer-songwriter Samantha Fish who, in 2024, earned a Grammy nomination with Jesse Dayton for Death Wish Blues, topped the Billboard Blues Charts, toured with Slash, opened for The Rolling Stones and joined the Experience Hendrix tour.

Red Rooster will also welcome multi-instrumentalist Jerron Paxton and soul bands Thee Sinseers and The Altons.

They will be joined by DeWolff, Danny and The Champions of the World, Jim Jones Allstars, Jenny Don't and The Spurs, JP Harris, Twinnie, David Viner, Emily Zeck, Too Bad Jims and The Zipheads.

More acts for Red Rooster, which has sold out over the past six years, are to be announced.

Festivalgoers can buy early bird ‘Still Snoozin’ tickets for £129.50 plus booking fee, covering three nights of camping and parking. Children under 12 go free.
