Roadburn Festival has just unleashed another wave of artists for its 2025 edition, adding 19 names to an already diverse lineup.
Among the new additions are the crushing force of SUMAC, the haunting experimental folk of ØXN, and the dark collaboration of DE MANNEN BROEDERS. These acts will join the previously announced CHAT PILE, KYLESA, and ALTIN GÜN, promising a visceral and boundary-pushing festival experience.
Walter Hoeijmakers, Roadburn’s visionary artistic director, shared his thoughts on this year’s lineup: “Each year at Roadburn, we bring together the artists who challenge the limits of their craft and those of their genre. For 2025, we continue this mission, navigating the fragmented underground to create something cohesive and transformative. This announcement represents the voices we want to amplify and the energy behind Roadburn’s curation for the coming year.”
