This year, we’re carrying on the party with a Silent Disco! Towards the end of the Ball, we’ll be
opening up a huge portion of the site for one of the biggest Silent Discos ever seen in the UK...
Charli XCX‘s meteoric rise over the past couple of years has been nothing short of spellbinding. With 33 MILLION single sales, over 1.5 BILLION YouTube streams under her belt and having very recently announced details of her all-new record, Charli XCX has firmly established herself as one of pop‘s frontrunners.
After some time spent writing their third studio album, Pendulum returned with ‘Immersion’ released in May 2010, which shot straight to No.1 in the UK Album Charts. The band followed this success with 2 Sold Out UK Tours, 2 huge shows at London’s Wembley Arena, tours in Europe and Australia and a massive summer spent smashing the international festival circuit.
Raye, an 18-year-old South Londoner, currently holds a CV that includes two stellar EPs, a monstrous single in the shape of I, U, Us (co-written with Charli XCX), a writing credit on ‘After The Afterparty‘, a collaboration with Nas on the soundtrack to The Birth Of A Nation, features on huge tunes by the likes of Jonas Blue and Jax Jones, and a rib-rattling collaboration with UK rap ballbuster Stefflon Don on an off-the-cuff cover of Desiigner‘s Timmy Turner.
Dr Meaker are the most exciting electronic live acts to come out of Bristol. The awesome line up, featuring Bristol’s finest musicians and vocalists, brings incredible energy to the stage every time they play. From nightclubs to muddy fields the band have torn up venues earning them many accolades and awards, including winning Glastonbury Festival’s Live Act Competition.
AJ Tracey is the 23-year-old West London grime artist set to gate crash the world stage in 2017. AJ’s addictive sound combines the razor-sharp wit of UK street music with an array of international rap influences, and it’s already seen him appear on tracks with Denzel Curry, Rick Ross and A$AP Rocky.
Nadia Rose began her career making mainly hip-hop and has since evolved into an artist that can create any genre of music, she combines all her art forms together to create her authentic and individual sound. Nadia is not your average rap/grime artist and is fast securing her place in the music industry as a force to be reckoned with.
