NEW ADDITIONS TO THE FLOW09 LINE UP
Flow Festival, organised in Helsinki's Suvilahti on August 14-16 as part of the Helsinki Festival, announces new additions into its artist roster. Each of the three festival dates receive ample additions in international plus domestic artists.
In addition to the line up released earlier, Flow Festival stages Grace Jones, the Jamaican-born superstar still going strong nearly four decades into her career, the British chart-topping indie-pop sensation White Lies, the Swedish artist Jenny Wilson who recently released her second album "Hardships" to great critical acclaim, and the American experimental hiphop producer par excellence, Flying Lotus.
Other new Flow acquisitions include upcoming indie rock acts, The Big Pink from Great Britain, and Handsome Furs from Montreal, Canada. The newly added British acts Kode9, Loefah and MC Sgt Pokes, and Scuba rank among the top names in dubstep. New Finnish additions to the Flow09 line up are Vuk, MI NI MA, Eero Johannes, and the pioneers of Finnish electro, Organ. The fresh Flow venue Makasiini will feature domestic acts Ponytail and Tuuli Inari as new additions.
The Flow09 program will be completed shortly, with one of the headliners for Friday to be announced.
You can find info on all of the artists confirmed thus far at the program section of the Flow Festival site.
