All Points East is a highlight of festival season, always boasting a strong lineup with an eclectic array of names. On the second Friday (August 22), Barry Can’t Swim is headlining a star-studded bill, bringing his full band set to the main stage.
After this, as has just been announced, the Scottish artist will then make his way over to Hackney Wick to play a DJ set at the official afterparty. It’s part of the ‘Amex Lates’ series, which takes place after the main festival’s sound is shut off, with sets in East London’s Colour Factory running into the early hours. Barry Can’t Swim tops the second bill announced for the afterparties, with JADE confirmed as the main act on the following day’s (August 23) event after the RAYE-headlined festival bill.
