James Bay has been announced as the Sunday night headliner for The Long Road 2025, joining Drake Milligan and Midland as part of this year's country and Americana celebration. The acclaimed BRIT Award winner and Grammy nominee will wrap up the August weekend, performing tracks from his latest album 'Changes All The Time'—which includes collaborations with Noah Kahan, The Lumineers, Holly Humberstone, and Brandon Flowers—as well as beloved songs from his past work. "Country and Americana have always been significant inspirations for me," Bay remarked regarding his upcoming appearance at The Long Road. "Much of my music is influenced by Nashville; I've been fortunate to perform in some of the city’s legendary venues like The Bluebird and The Ryman, and I'm continually captivated by the remarkable storytelling within these genres." In addition to Bay, the 2025 lineup includes artists such as Seasick Steve, Alana Springsteen, Janet Devlin, and Chuck Ragan (who will be giving a European exclusive performance). Attendees will also have the chance to participate in Nashville-style songwriter rounds, meet and greets with artists, and afterparties. The Long Road Festival 2025 is scheduled to take place from Friday, August 22, to Sunday, August 24, at Stanford Hall, Leicestershire. Tickets—featuring options for weekend, camping, day, and children's passes—are available now on the festival's website, and you can view the official lineup poster below in all its vibrant detail.
