Big Chill Dishes Initial Lineup

HEREFORDSHIRE, UK (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — Massive Attack and M.I.A. have been tapped to headline the 2010 Big Chill Festival, set for August 5-8 at Eastno Castle Deer Park in Herefordshire.

Big Chill debuted in 1994 as series of ambient music parties but has expanded over the years to encompass a wider selection of alternative, dance and chillout music along with comedy and performance art.

The brand was purchased in 2009 by Live Nation subsidiary Festival Republic after it was placed into voluntary liquidation, by its owners Chillfest Limited, who had produced the event since 2003.

This year's event will feature camping and a performance by artist Spencer Tunick who, according to Billboard, will be creating a live nude landscape with help from audience volunteers.
