Florence & The Machine and The xx are the star attractions of today’s Melt Festival announcement.

The German event has begun to shape its line-up for Ferropolis, Germany between July 13th-15th next year, with Tyler The Creator, Jon Hopkins and Cigarettes After Sex some of the other confirmed acts.




The xx have been busy all year touring their third album I See You, and invited Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown and Paris Jackson to lend a hand on the video for I Dare You.

“We are so happy to share our new video for ‘I Dare You’,” they said of it on Facebook. “Our love letter to Los Angeles, a city close to our hearts, where we wrote and recorded parts of our album ‘I See You’. This is the third video, our friend, the wonderful Alasdair McLellan has directed for us. He collaborated with a hero of ours, Raf Simons on the creative concept and direction.”

“It was amazing to work with both of them and such a pleasure to meet and work with Millie Bobby Brown, Paris Jackson, Ashton, Lulu and Ernesto! Thank you to Calvin Klein and everyone involved. We hope you enjoy watching!”
