Third Greenbelt headliner:
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
We’re pleased to announce a third music headliner for this year’s Greenbelt festival. Joining Amadou & Mariam, and Lemar, we’re very excited to say that critically acclaimed rock titans BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB have joined the varied and dynamic bill.
Pioneers in “fuzzy guitars, blues licks, [and] atmospheric feedback”, BRMC’s appearance at Greenbelt arrives on the back of their extremely well-reviewed sixth studio album “Specter At The Feast”, which has received plaudits from The Guardian, Q Magazine, NME and more.
The album was inspired by the passing of bassist Robert Been’s father Michael, who – as well as often being referred to as BRMC’s “fourth member” – also played Greenbelt himself in the 1980s, as frontman of The Call.
The trio join musicians, artists, thinkers and speakers at the 40th Greenbelt in August, and are sure to provide a thrilling and powerful Mainstage set.
