Way Out West

Pulp, Robyn, Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, Fleet Foxes, Janelle Monae, Twin Shadow, Warpaint, The Avett Brothers. No shoot-outs, swinging saloon doors or stage coaches maybe, but plenty of ops for good times in picturesque Slottskogen park (with elk!) in Sweden's second-largest city, and organic food adding to the sonic and scenic attractions. Our beloved national treasure and 6Music star Jarvis Cocker continues the reunion with his Sheffield Britpop crew Pulp, alongside the sassy, lightning-blonde-haired Swede Robyn, much-loved orchestral pop outfit FF and alluring avant/psych-pop with folk overtones from LA's prolific Ariel Pink – né Ariel Marcus Rosenberg – and pals.
