Bjork Pulls Out From UK Festival, And The Cancellation Dominoes Fall

AP070502054763.jpgBjork’s claims that dropping out of the headlining spot at this weekend’s Wild In The Country festival was based on general concern for all the artists’ rather than demands on her part were backed up by Battles and Soulwax leaving the lineup soon after. With ticket sales dropping in response and a “key investor” pulling out, the entire festival, planned for Saturday, has been canceled. The organizers claim to be offering refunds to ticket buyers, as they did following Bjork’s cancellation late Friday, but have yet to provide information as to how fans can receive them. NME]
