The Great Escape adds 100 more acts
With less than two months until anyone who’s anyone heads to good old Sussex by the sea for the festival to be at, The Great Escape has further whetted our appetites by announcing another 100 acts. And, holy smoke, there are some hot additions.
Top of our list is Brighton’s own The Go! Team, who will be sure to bring the mutha-flippin-party to their home town. When they bust out Ladyflash, we might just lose our shit. Also, very much on our list of acts not to miss are Aussie folksters All Our Exes Live in Texas. Another artist fresh out of Aus is Ecca Vandal, the child of Sri Lankan refugees who eventually settled in Melbourne via South Africa and who busts out bruising, genre-defying tunes. Also joining the ever-expanding and increasingly excellent line up are Alma, the Finnish powerhouse known for her extraordinary soulful voice, as well as Lotto Boyzz, who will drop their own unique genre of afrobean, a mix of African and Caribbean music. Kojey Radical, Teleman, Deep Throat Choir, Nina Nesbitt and Whyte Horses are also must-sees and don’t forget the brilliantly-named house producer Ross From Friends, bringing the party to The Late Escape.
