Grace Jones has added a bunch more acts to her edition of Meltdown this summer, including Sky Ferreira, John Grant and Hot Chip.
Running from 10th June to 19th June, Jones will be playing a second, opening show in addition to her sold-out closing performance.
Curating the rest of the line-up, there’ll also be shows from Honey Dijon, Big Joanie, Dave Okumu and more.
“In the face of adversity, there is no pandemic in the world that will stop me from curating the Meltdown festival,” Jones reveals. “It is my mission to present to you many exciting and gifted artists from various sectors of the music world. Come, see and listen; experience this dazzling plethora of talent at the Southbank Centre.”
