Mumford & Sons will headline next year’s British Summer Time Festival on July 8th, chiefly supported by Wolf Alice and Alabama Shakes.
“Hyde Park for us: sacrificing hopes and dreams at the altar of Neil Young; being transported to another dimension by The National; supporting Arcade Fire (the best band in the world); playing alongside our mates The Vaccines; accidentally seeing Black Eyed Peas; wishing we were at Kylie,” the band have said.
“What a place. And this time we get to headline and pick a bill of sick artists to play with us. Alabama Shakes! Wolf Alice! Gentlewomen of the Road! We’re travelling all over at the moment, so having this massive gig to look forward to next Summer, right in the heart of our home city, is just awesome.”
Mumford & Sons released ‘Wilder Mind‘ earlier this year and were also confirmed this week for the 2016 Firefly Festival in Delaware.
