Robert Smith has unveiled the first round of names due to perform at his Meltdown Festival this summer. The Cure man has the honour of curating the 25th edition of the event at London’s Southbank Centre with highlights including sets by The Church, Kristin Hersh, Mogwai, My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails, Placebo, The Notwist, The Psychedelic Furs and Manic Street Preachers. Smith remarked: “Curating this 25th Meltdown festival is a dream come true, a fantastic experience… albeit getting 60 wonderful artists, including many of my all-time favourites, to come together for 10 days in June is not without its challenges – as one of my predecessors noted, it is akin to figuring out a giant psychedelic puzzle. But as each invitee confirms, as each shimmering piece falls into place, I pinch myself – this is really happening. And the complete picture will undoubtedly be out of this world!”
The concert series takes place across multiple venues between 15-24 June. The Cure themselves follow the event with a huge gig at BST Hyde Park in London on 7 July.
