Sound City 2019 // Main wave of artists announced

Sound City which takes place among the hustle and bustle of Liverpool's Baltic Triangle is a weekend not to be missed. The festival sets the city alight with live music across various venues and the the main wave of acts have been announced joining Loyle Carner, Mabel, The Magic Gang, Spinn, Red Rum Club, Our Girl, Ryan McCullen and more. 

Leading the announcement are Shame. Last year, Shame's debut album 'Songs Of Praise' took the year by storm as it dropped right at the beginning of 2018 and was definitely one of the most talked about albums of the year. Incredibly energetic and anthemic, they are not one to be missed at this years Sound City. 

Next up, harmonious guitar band Blaenavon are awash with gorgeous melodies and heartfelt vocals, whilst the sublime Aussie outfit Confidence Man bring their dance-pop joy to the city. They join the already announced headliners including Loyle Carner, Mabel and The Magic Gang.


Dynamic indie rockers King No-One continue to take the live scene by storm. Kara Marni blends her beautiful soul music with pop riffs, local legends Clean Cut Kid’s lo-fi American East Coast sound has won them plenty of fans, and Irish experimental folk singer Soak continues to inspire. Then there’s the wondrous Stella Donnelly, whose lo-fi bedroom folk-pop is spiked with wit and feminist defiance, to Spinn who are the masterful Scouse feel-good four-piece, and energetic indie-rockers The Jungle Giants make the trip from Down Under. Further artists include Estrons, Benny Mails, Monks, Pizzagirl, Sunshine Frisby Laserbeam, Talkshow, Childcare, Emily Burns, Lennie Dies, Saltwater Sun and Tamu Massif.

Husky Loops also join the lineup again this year. Husky Loops bring a real unique take of modern rock music and give it a new life and zesty twist. Further artists include Luwten, Hope, Surma, Mateusz Franczak, Josh Island, BOKKA, Them Lights, Loving Embers, Vera Jonas Experiment, ANNELIE, КУКЛА, Blaž and Oscar Soul Experience.

Rebecca Ayres, Sound City’s Managing Director, says: 

“This is a major announcement for us at Sound City, as we reveal the main wave of artists coming to Liverpool for our 12^th year in Liverpool.
