Festivals: METZ & John Talabot announced for inaugural Brighton fest Mutations

METZ, John Talabot and Chelsea Wolfe are three of the first acts to be confirmed for the first ever Mutations festival, taking place in Brighton later this year.

Born from last year’s DRILL: BRIGHTON, the inaugural edition of the two-day event will take place on 28th and 29th November taking place in venues across Brighton. The premise is that, while the day will begin with several line-ups across different stages, as time progresses, fewer venues will be used, allowing for less risk of clashing.

Elsewhere on the first announcement of acts are the likes of Lightning Bolt, Josh T Pearson, Tourist and Willis Earl Beal.

Tickets for the event are super limited - just 1000 will be made available - with pre-sale beginning this Wednesday (26th August) at 9am. General sale then kicks off on Friday 28th August.

The full list of artists announced for the fest so far is as follows: METZ, John Talabot (DJ), Lightning Bolt, Josh T Pearson, Tourist, OM, Chelsea Wolfe, Willis Earl Beal, Ought, Jane Weaver, Natalie Prass, BRNS, Kagoule, Vision Fortune, Blaenavon, All Tvvins, Lowly, Plastic Mermaids, Chastity, Mount Bank, Abi Wade, Sea Bastard, Blacklisters, Foreign Skin and Nature Channel.
