More Names Announced For Wide Awake 2025
Christmas has come early and what’s that? More names added to the lineup? Too right.
Joining our already strong lineup is self-described “BDSM pop” artist COBRAH, New York’s favourite electronic band Fcukers, Grammy-nominated producer Marie Davidson, British singer-songwriter Nadine Shah, London-based post-punk band Warmduscher, experimental electronic artist Chanel Beads and vivacious Irish post-punk and shoegaze band Gurriers.
Rooted in Stockholm’s fetish party scene and LGBTQIA+ community, COBRAH is known for her “BDSM pop” and “gay workout music” style. Following on from the buzz of tracks like “GOOD PUSS” and “ICON”, her debut album SUCCUBUS, released in 2023, is goth-inspired, club-ready and infused with filthy-pop grit. We’re so ready to sweat with COBRAH.
Homie might not shake but we sure do when Fcukers take the stage. New York’s favourite electronic band have won audiences over ever since their debut live show in 2023. Having released their debut EP, Baggy$$, this year and now touring with the iconic Confidence Man and LCD Soundsystem, they’re reigniting NY club culture. Fcukers are here for a good time so come and fcuking party with them at Wide Awake.
Growing up in Montreal’s DIY scene, performer and producer Marie Davidson, has always defied norms in dance music and has become renowned for her live sets which combine drum machines and live vocals. Mercury-nominated singer-songwriter Nadine Shah’s sound has often been described as a blend of PJ Harvey and Nick Cave. Her atmospheric, pop and jazz-style indie rock also contains political themes, confronting right-wing nationalism, mental health awareness and women’s rights.
Plus, British post-punk band Warmduscher known as “the offspring of a match made in hell between Fat White Family and Paranoid London” will return to the Wide Awake stage after a raucous set in 2023. Also new to the roster is experimental electronic pop artist, Chanel Beads and Dublin-based post-punk, noise rock and shogegaze band Gurriers who’s addictive sound has made them a crowd favourite.
They’ll be joining headliners Kneecap, CMAT, and English Teacher, plus so many other incredible cutting-edge leftfield artists.
