0

Earlier this morning, London’s Lovebox Festival announced Frank Ocean as their first headliner, marking his first live UK performance in over three years. As the day has unfolded, mind, it seems that Frank is also planning to perform further festival stints next summer too.

Alongside Denmark’s Northside Festival, the singer will reportedly also headline three US festivals too – Hangout, Sasquatch and New York’s Panorama Music Festival. These three shows are yet to be confirmed by organisers, however Consequence Of Sound (who are usually incredibly-accurate with these kinds of news-pieces) are reporting the dates as confirmed.

UPDATE: Hangout Festival have confirmed the news, revealing their 2017 lineup which includes Frank Ocean plus also Chance the Rapper, MGMT, Weezer and Mumford and Sons.

For those in the UK hoping to catch a glimpse of Frank, tickets for Lovebox 2017 are onsale now via the link below:

Isle of Wight Festival 2017: Rod Stewart confirmed to headline

Rod Stewart has been confirmed as the second headliner for next summer’s Isle Of Wight Festival, closing the four-day event on Sunday 11th June.

Joining the previously-announced Arcade Fire (who will headline on Saturday 10th June), the 71 year-old’s appointment will mark his only 2017 festival appearance, counting himself out of a rumoured Glastonbury performance a fortnight later.

Of the news, Isle of Wight Festival promoter John Giddings said: “I’ve wanted Rod Stewart to play at the festival for a number of years – he’s an incredible icon with a career that’s spanned over five decades so it’s impossible to not be a fan. On Sunday night he’ll bring an incredible energy to create an unforgettable moment.”
