Dot To Dot 2017 Lineup
The UK’s premier festival for unearthing the best new talent, Dot To Dot Festival, returns to Manchester, Bristol, and Nottingham from the 26th-28th May 2017 for its 12th edition. After smashing record attendance, and marking a sell-out Manchester event in 2016, more of the same is expected for 2017, with a huge line-up of established performers and emerging artists from around the world.
With many exciting announcements to follow, Dot To Dot, are ecstatic to announce the first wave of artists to play this year’s festival: Euphoric guitar rock supremos Sundara Karma will return to the Dot To Dot stage – this time as festival headliners. Their meteoric rise and epic debut album came as no surprise to anybody who have seen these guys at Dot To Dot before. With stage presence in abundance, and a plethora of huge songs such as ‘Flame’, ‘Loveblood’ and ‘She Said’, Sundara Karma embody everything Dot To Dot stands for, and we can’t wait to see them own the headline slot.
Joining Sundara Karma will be more Dot To Dot legends, in the form of Nottingham’s own Amber Run. Their scintillating second album just dropped after a year in the studio, and we couldn’t be happier for their return. Californian rockers The Growlers also join the party, after their latest album City Club, produced by The Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas, took the UK by storm when it was released last year. After a memorable performance in 2015, high octane Scottish duo Honeyblood, have also been confirmed to return. With their blend of Americana influenced, emo-tinged indie rock Pinegrove are crossing the Atlantic for this year’s Dot To Dot. Louis Berry will be stamping his own brand of Merseyside rock ‘n’ roll on this year’s festival. We’ll also be treated to sets by much-hyped LA 3-piece Cherry Glazerr, Irish chart-toppers Picture This and BBC Sound Of 2017 shortlisted vocalist Tom Grennan.
The first wave announcement also includes: Alaskalaska, All We Are, Ardyn, Banfi, Cosmo Pyke, Croox, Cuckoolander, Easy Life, Freak, Heaters, Horse Thief, Kolars, Liv Dawson, Low Island, Nilüfer Yanya, Overcoats, Parcels, Parekh & Singh, Redfaces, Sonny, Swimming Tapes, Ten Tonnes, Tender, The Night Café, Vagabon, Willie J Healey, Yellow Days, and Yonaka.
With the emphasis on showcasing the hottest new talent on the planet, there will be lots more exciting additions to be announced for Dot To Dot’s 2017 line-up. Make sure you keep checking www.dottodotfestival.co.uk for all the latest news and ticket info.
