News – Forest of Dean indie dance legends EMF have announced an exciting return to the live music stage, playing Schubert Dip at the inaugural Lakefest near Tewkesbury this spring.

One of the biggest bands to ever hail from Gloucestershire, Forest of Dean indie dance music legends Epsom Mad Funkers, better known as EMF, will be returning to the live stage this year –performing at the inaugural Lakefest on Friday 18 May 2012.

What’s more the band is set to delight festival-goers by performing Schubert Dip, their acclaimed multi-million selling debut album, in its entirety. The album features international No.1 hit ‘Unbelievable’ alongside top ten singles ‘I Believe’, ‘Children’ and ‘Lies’ – while their Lakefest show will also see them perform tracks from the album which have never been heard live.

Lakefest 2012 organiser Martin Newell said: ‘We are thrilled to be able to announce EMF’s involvement in what will be a very memorable festival for a lot of reasons. They are one of Gloucestershire’s biggest bands in history and for them to agree to reform and play this special show for us is an honour – one that no-one will want to miss.’
