Foals Confirmed To Headline Ibiza Rocks Closing Party
Thursday, 07 February 2013
Written by Elliott Batte
Oxford-based indie-rockers Foals have been confirmed to perform at the closing party of Ibiza Rocks later this year.
Ibiza Rocks is a summer-long festival held on, you guessed it, the sunny island resort of Ibiza, and the festival culminates in a massive closing party on Wednesday 18th September. Now, festival favourites Foals have been confirmed as the headline act who will see off the summer’s parties in style.
To say that Yannis Phillipakis and co. have got off to a good start in 2013 is a huge understatement. With their hotly anticipated third studio album ‘Holy Fire’ set for release next week, their incredible new singles ‘Inhaler’ and ‘My Number’ have catapulted them onto the radio A-list and caught the attention of festivals, fans and critics across the globe.
As well as a critically acclaimed new album in the pipeline, Foals also boast a stunning live show that has packed venues around the UK including two colossal shows at London’s Royal Albert Hall - which sold out in just 15 minutes.
With this sort of momentum behind them, Ibiza Rocks is hugely excited to welcome Foals to the famous open-air Rocks stage for the coveted closing party slot, previously played by Two Door Cinema Club, Noah and the Whale, Klaxons and The Specials, to name a few.
Philippakis said of the news: "We've always wanted to go to an Ibiza closing party... and now we get to play one. Double bubble."
