Some of the greatest stars in the industry performed at the annual electronic music extravaganza First Light Festival in the United Kingdom this year. Gilles Peterson, LTJ Bukem, Chris Coco, Talvin Singh, Lynda Dawn, Tom McRae, Jembaa Groove, Rock Choir, Sam Kelly & The Lost Boys, and Eliza Carthy were some of the top headlining performers.
Each performer brought their distinct approach to the stage and enthralled the crowd with their powerful performances. Known for his wide-ranging musical preferences, Gilles Peterson had the crowd moving with his fusion of jazz, funk, and soul. Fans were dancing to LTJ Bukem's distinctive drum and bass beats, and Talvin Singh's electronica-Indian classical music combination was well received.
The event celebrated electronic music and the wide variety of artists who create it. The festival included the greatest in the genre, from Eliza Carthy's folk-inspired songs to Lynda Dawn's soulful melodies. It's hardly surprising that First Light Festival is one of the most eagerly awaited events in the UK music calendar given its breathtaking setting and excellent lineup.
