Festival No 6 has announced a typically ace list of artists joining the bill in the wonderfully surreal surroundings of Portmeirion.

Performing in front of a home crowd will be psychedelic heroes Super Furry Animals (watch their wonderful debut single 'Hometown Unicorn' below) who will be joined in Wales by Canadian indie-rock supergroup Broken Social Scene and fellow psych heroes Temples.

Also newly added is Portland alt-country stalwart M. Ward, German folktronica duo Milky Chance and feted post-punk noiseniks Eagulls.

With a career spanning almost 40 years Mancunian post punk funk pioneers A Certain Ratio also join the bill along with Formation, White, Clean Cut Kid, Babeheaven, Bad Sounds, Shells and breakthrough indie-popsters VYNCE.

The late night electronic line-up has some exciting additions including Gold Panda whose third album Good Luck and Do Your Best will be out this May, Hessle Audio founder Ben UFO, Bas Bron’s electro side-project Fatima Yamaha and deep house discotists Crazy P.
