Foals to headline Transgressive’s 15th anniversary at The Great Escape

Foals will be the main attraction when Transgressive celebrates its 15th anniversary at The Great Escape next month.

The London-based indie company is to hold the bash at Brighton’s Concorde 2 venue on Friday May 10th, and co-founder Toby L is unsurprisingly delighted to have secured Foals. “The Great Escape is easily one of the world’s most progressive and exciting showcase platforms and since Transgressive always endeavours to unearth and support brand new artists that offer something to say, it felt entirely apt to kickstart a year of parties, special releases and other birthday related gimmickry in Brighton at an event we’ve supported since its inception,” Toby says.

“It’s fair to say we wanted to do something pretty big to launch our birthday year, and I guess that’s how / why we’ve landed here. Foals have some incredible history with Concorde 2 and it seemed like an absolute dream to reunite them. We’ll have some new artists from the roster in support on the night, too, plus some friendly faces behind the decks.”

“And we’ll hopefully be well warmed up by then as we are looking forward to staging another event the night before at The Old Market, co-hosted with our friends at Fender. More on that one soon, too.”
