Sunday Live Report Longitude: HamsandwicH, Christine & The Queens, All Tvvins, Rusangano Family

On Day 3 of Longitude, whatever god the festival organisers sacrificed an animal to rewarded us with an abundance of sun. The mood of Sunday faithful couldn't have been any higher: festival goers were armed with 99's, sunscreen and enough inflatable beach balls to fill the 3Arena.

Early in the afternoon, as already reported by Peter McNally, Rusangano Family brought their trademark raucous energy to an eager audience. God Knows and MuRli tore across the stage igniting hollers and hoots from all watching. The limerick trio's hip hop is perfectly suited for an outdoor show, managing to blend a socially conscious message with irresistible beats from mynameisjOhn.

On the Main Stage, crowd favourites HamsandwicH brought an even more delightful vibe to a beautiful day. As the early bird fans lay down on the grass to take in the show, they were throughly entertained by guitarist Podge McNamee, as he announced: "Could the owner of the 1992 red Nissan Micra please move their car, it's blocking the entrance. The lad from The National, can you move your Nissan Micra, please!"

The Irish indie darlings ran through a plethora of hits from the albums White Fox and Stories from the Surface, and asked that everyone in the pit sit down. When the request wasn't entirely respected, Podge jokingly remarked: "Ah, there's always one stubborn punter that won't do it." They were entertaining and lighthearted, the perfect ingredients to start the day.

The hotly tipped Irish three piece All Tvvins had no problems drawing in the party goers. As soon as the first drum beat landed, a flood of fans came piling in.
They premiered a host of tracks from their upcoming debut LP, that'll be released in a month's time. It's hard to envision anything other than a meteoric rise for the electro-rockers.

Christine & the Queens was a revelation. The French singer was simply adorable and enchanting as she thrilled the audience with her jerky, robotic dance moves. "You could be whatever you want, you could be a bicycle, there's no judgement here," she told the crowd, before adding that a sense of individuality is key for her. "I've stopped trying to fit in. Everything is really straight anyway, and I'm just a slightly dirty," she confessed with a smirk.

With Chicago rapper Vic Mensa, grungy-americana outfit Kurt Vile & The Violators, man of mystery Father John Misty, Irish superstar Róisín Murphy and indie kings The National all still to perform, it's going to be one hell of a final night of music.
