Catfish & The Bottlemen are the biggest newly confirmed name for this year’s Isle Of Wight festival.
“We’ve always supported fresh, new and exciting talent at the at the Isle of Wight Festival,” organiser John Giddings believes. “It’s what music festivals are all about. We had Blossoms in 2015 and they’ve just been nominated for a BRIT award! Looking forward to seeing what the Isle of Wight 2017’s talents have in store for us!”
Thus, Zara Larsson and The Amazons are other new names on the bill between June 8th-11th, as are The Strypes whose guitarist Ross Farrelly says:
“We love the Isle of Wight Festival. It’s one of our favourite festivals, so being invited back to play is incredible news! We can’t wait. Roll on June!”
Afterwards, Catfish & The Bottlemen head out to North America to support Green Day in August and September.
