Jesca Hoop at Cloudspotting Festival 2017 at Gisburn Forest, 28 — 31 July 2017 Tickets from £30.00 — Book now

Jesca Hoop brings Cloudspotting to a close this year, with a Sunday night headlining set. The Californian-raised, Manchester-based singer-songwriter, who previously played the festival in 2013, is riding a wave of success right now: following last year’s duet album and tour with Iron & Wine’s Sam Beam, she has released Memories Are Now, her own debut on Sub Pop Records, to critical acclaim.

Hoop heads up a day of leading female artists at the top of their game – with the likes of This Is The Kit, Holly Macve, Hannah Peel, and Rioghnach Connolly of The Breath also featuring on the Sunday.
