Slam Dunk Festival // 2ND ANNOUNCEMENT...


DON BROCO, PVRIS, WHILE SHE SLEEPS, THE BRONX & MANY MORE AMONGST BANDS ANNOUNCED...

Earlier this month, SLAM DUNK FESTIVAL announced its huge return to the festival circuit with headliners YOU ME AT SIX.  The festival, which takes place over the May bank holiday weekend at 3 sites in Leeds, Hatfield and Wolverhampton, announced a massive increase in capacity at all events late last year. 2015 sees the Leeds event return to its original home, Millennium Square.



Joining YOU ME AT SIX will be friends of SLAM DUNK FESTIVAL, DON BROCO. These recent Kerrang! cover stars have been one of the fastest growing bands in the UK with many a BBC Radio 1 playlist, sold out tours and an increasingly expanding loyal fan base. They are currently working on their 2nd album, which is set for release this summer.


DON BROCO: “We’re very excited to be returning to Slam Dunk, it’s one of our favourite festivals and the line up this year is sick! “



Perhaps one of the most talked about new bands in the world right now, PVRIS will be making their UK festival debut at SLAM DUNK. Debut album ‘White Noise’ dropped late last year and the first single went C List on Radio 1. Expect massive things from this band after Slam Dunk.  Singer Lynn Gunn of PVRIS says:



“We've always heard about Slam dunk and we've seen our friends performing at it. We're very excited to get back over to the UK and finally get to play it ourselves!”



One of the most exciting, ferocious and downright brilliant UK metal bands,
WHILE SHE SLEEPS return to SLAM DUNK after a 3 year absence, armed with new album 'Brainwashed' and a front man (Loz) with newly fixed and better than ever vocal chords (thanks doc!). This will be a must see, do not miss them at SLAM DUNK 2015!



Also joining the line-up includes probably one of the most perfectly chaotic bands TRASH TALK, that will no doubt rip SLAM DUNK apart in the best possible way, Boston’s A LOSS FOR WORDS playing one of their final shows, THE BRONX will be flying in exclusively to bring the party whilst their alter ego MARIACHI EL BRONX will be sure to have everyone dancing.
