Liverpool Sound City adds Nieve Ella, Panic Shack, TTSSFU and more to 2025 lineup
They join previously announced Saturday headliners, The Royston Club.
Liverpool Sound City has unveiled its first wave of artists for 2025, confirming over 30 new names who’ll join previously-announced Saturday headliners The Royston Club on the lineup for next year’s festival.
Among these new additions are indie-pop star-in-waiting Nieve Ella, joyous Welsh punks Panic Shack, and certified One To Watch TTSSFU, as well as indie risers like overpass, Siobhan Winifred, and local outfit The Cheap Thrills.
Also joining the fun will be Mandrake Handshake - who’ve just announced their debut album, ‘Earth-Sized Worlds’ - Deary, Better Joy and more, while over 100 names for the new music discovery double header are still yet to be announced.
Sound City will take place in venues across Liverpool city centre on 3rd and 4th May 2025, and tickets are on sale now here. You can remind yourself who played last year’s edition and check out the full lineup (so far!) for Sound City 2025 below.
