Damon Albarn and Interpol confirmed for Roskilde Festival

Extraordinary musical chameleon Damon Albarn brings his first solo album to this year’s Roskilde Festival in Denmark. The line-up also includes dark alternative rock from Interpol and Warpaint.

 

Damon Albarn incarnates like few others Roskilde Festival’s ambitions: Quality, curiosity and exploration go hand in hand. Throughout his impressive career, he has been around Brit pop, Afro pop, alternative rock and even Chinese opera.

 

Later in 2014, Damon Albarn releases his first solo album, entitled Everyday Robots, and on that occasion he is confirmed for a live show at Denmark’s Roskilde Festival.

 

Roskilde Festival’s program director Anders Wahren says:

 

”Roskilde Festival’s audience has grown quite familiar with Damon Albarn because of his previous shows here with Blur and Gorillaz. Now that he finally releases his first proper solo album, we are proud that our audience will have the opportunity to experience that milestone in his career”.

 

Roskilde Festival also adds majestic and melodic alternative rock to the line-up in the shape of New Yorker band Interpol who breaks four years of silence with the release of a new album in 2014.

 

Also, Los Angeles-based art rockers Warpaint are added to the line-up.

 

Approximately 160 acts are expected to play at Roskilde Festival in 2014.

 

The line-up currently includes acts as diverse as Arctic Monkeys, Haim, Major Lazer, Earl Sweatshirt, Pusha T, Rob Zombie, Trentemøller and MØ.
