BBC REVAMPS NEW ACTS SHOWCASE

1/16/18

A host of rising stars from the U.K. will play the newly named BBC Music Sound of 2018 Live gig in London on 1/30 at Maida Vale Studios. Alongside Sound Of winner Sigrid (Island), names on the bill include Not3s (Relentless), Pale Waves (Dirty Hit), Rex Orange County (Kobalt) and Yxng Bane (Disturbing London).

Years & Years (Polydor), who were crowned Sound Of winners in 2015, will also perform.

BBC Music Sound of 2018 replaces Radio 1’s Future Festival, which had showcased new acts tipped for big things at the start of every year. DJ Annie Mac will host the event broadcast live on BBC Radio 1.
