On 4th-7th December, cult heroes Wire are curating the first ever Drill:Brighton festival, which features special one-off performances featuring the headliners / curators.

A new batch of names have been confirmed, joining up with Courtney Barnett, Savages, Gold Panda and The Wytches.

British Sea Power will join the bill, with These New Puritans among the big additions. There’s also Vessels, Young Fathers, Sauna Youth, Bad Breeding and Esben and the Witch.

Swans are confirmed to perform an extended version of Wire’s ‘Drill’ track, with the curators also arriving with their own ‘Pinkflag Guitar Orchestra’, featuring members of bands confirmed to play the festival.
