Californian hip-hop duo, Paris Texas, is ready to bring their unique flavour to the stage. Following them, is Grammy winner Flowdan, who made history as the first UK MC to clinch a Grammy for his groundbreaking collaboration ‘Rumble’ with Fred Again and Skrillex.
Making their Irish debut, prepare to be mesmerized by sibling band and music collective, Infinity Song, hailing from New York City.
Their soft rock sound, characterised by tight vocal harmonies, dreamy lyricism, and sublime guitar riffs, is epitomised in their hit Hater’s Anthem.
From Manchester, we welcome Interplanetary Criminal, a pioneering DJ and producer whose infectious track ‘B.O.T.A.’ with Eliza Rose soared to Number 1.
Don’t let the name fool you; DJ BORING’s sets are anything but mundane. With vibrant energy and undeniable passion, Tristan Hallis delivers every time.
His recent collaboration with Confidence Man is a testament to his prowess in producing high-quality music.
