Musical Profile - Festivals

A key indicator of the style of music a band plays, and the type of fanbase they will attract is the variety of music festivals they play. For example, Sonisphere, a metal festival that has previously been headlined by bands that include the Big Four, is a popular location for metalheads and rockers. In contrast, very few Sonisphere attendees will also be present at Latitude, a more family-oriented festival with folk being as prominent in Southwold as metal is at Knebworth.

Given their origins in Glasgow, A Joker's Rage would be unlikely to pass up an opportunity to play at Scotland's biggest festival, T in the Park. The style of music played at the festivals is varied, although A Joker's Rage would have no problem fitting in. The T in the Park website takes a very simple approach in its design, with very little clutter on the main page. The colour scheme of the main page is natural, by making it predominantly blue, representing the sky, with the festivals traditional attractions on a green field at the bottom.
