Deer Shed Festival co-founder had this to say about the first announcements for 2025:

“We are well on the way to building another classic Deer Shed line-up for 2025. We are off to such a great start - I’m super delighted that one of the UK’s hottest bands, Wunderhorse, will be headlining on Friday night. I think a lot of people are going to get very excited about this first round of music, I certainly am! “
