Faithless and Stereophonics to co-headline Isle of Wight

Isle of Wight Festival has revealed more details of its 2016 line-up. Both Faithless and Stereophonics will be co-headlining Friday night at the festival. This means that they will join Queen + Adam Lambert who will play an exclusive UK festival performance on the Sunday night.

Stereophonics’ Kelly Jones said: I love playing the Isle Of Wight Festival. I got to steer the boat over last time. Captain of the ship and honked the horn!  Only the captain gets to honk the horn. This will be our third time at the festival…. I’ll leave my white suit at home this time though!”

Faithless commented about the news: “We cant wait to return to play such an iconic festival for the second time. We were proud to be part of its relaunch in 2005 and it’s an absolute pleasure to be invited back.” 

Finally festival promoter John Giddings said: “We are delighted to welcome Stereophonics and Faithless back to The Isle of Wight Festival to co-headline the Friday night. Stereophonics continue to prove they are still on top with a new No. 1 album and they are absolutely brilliant live. Likewise Faithless, who are currently celebrating their 20th year, have had hit after hit, and I know the crowds at the festival are going to go crazy when they bring their live set up to theFriday night. Looking forward to catching their sets!”

Isle of Wight festival will take place between 9th and 12th June in 2016.
