The Mad Cool Festival is building up another impressive line-up for 2019.
Joining The National and The 1975 today are The Cure, whose stop in Madrid next summer will be one of many for them during the festival season. Amongst those is Roskilde in Denmark, an event whose head of programme Anders Wahrén said: “The Cure are in every way the perfect closing act for next year’s edition of Roskilde Festival.”
“They have an immense back catalogue of hits and beloved classics from the past 40 years, and their remarkably close relationship with our audience will surely create a special and very moving atmosphere.”
“When they asked to play the final weekend show on Orange Stage, we didn’t hesitate for a second. They can play for hours on end if they want to, and I won’t miss a second of it.”
Some of the other festivals Robert Smith and co will be performing at next year are Rock Werchter, NOS Alive and Exit.
