The Camden Rocks Festival has announced the first names for its 2017 line-up, led by The Damned, Orange Goblin and The Ruts DC.
“We’re ecstatic to have such a legendary punk band like The Damned playing Camden Rocks Festival this year, they were one of the first bands I saw play live up in Newcastle, and a band I’ve seen more than any other – a huge inspiration,” organiser Chris McCormack said.
More than 250 bands and artists will be hitting Camden Town on June 3rd 2017, the 25 venues set to include the Koko for next year too.
“As always, this year will be made up of all the best high-energy guitar bands we can get our hands on, along with all the best new bands we find through our Camden Rocks Presents shows we put on throughout the year in the lead up,” McCormack added.
