Wireless Festival announce that TV On The Radio, Foals, The Horrors, Metronomy & The Naked & Famous will all be joining Pulp at Hyde Park on Sunday, 3rd July!
Brooklyn based TV On The Radio will return to the stage after a year long hiatus. Defined by their mix of post-punk and electronic melody, they first rose to prominence with their debut album OK Calculator. In 2004 they were awarded the prestigious Shortlist Music Prize in the US, and they are currently putting the finishing touches to their sixth studio album Nine Types Of Light.
They'll be joined in Hyde Park by Oxford quintet Foals, who arrived in 2008 with their smash hit, top three album Antidotes. Mixing gritty tunes and an energetic stage presence, their last album, Total Life Forever was nominated for the Barclaycard Mercury Music Prize, cementing their status as a band to be reckoned with.
Also joining the party will be the Faris Badwan led cult band The Horrors. Bursting onto the scene in 2006 with Sheena Is a Parasite (and the controversial, intestine spewing Chris Cunningham directed video), the band have consistently been hailed as one of the best bands in the country, with a live show not to be missed.
Electro pop act Metronomy have also been added to the bill. They will be playing tracks from their forthcoming album The English Riviera, !
With an already enviable array of talent confirmed and many more acts to be announced in the coming weeks, Wireless with Barclaycard is set to be jam-packed with the biggest sounds of the summer!
