The Strokes will perform together again for the first time in two years at New York City's Governors Ball this summer.
They will make a headline appearance at Randall's Island Park on June 2, with Tyler, the Creator topping the bill on the first day, May 31, and Florence and the Machine the next. Also booked to perform are SZA, Mitski, the 1975, Kacey Musgraves, Vince Staples, Nas, Major Lazer, Lil Wayne Brockhampton, the Internet, Playboi Carti, and more. In addition to the Strokes, who top Sunday's bill, vocalist Julian Casablancas’ the Voidz are also booked to perform on the Friday.
The announcement is part of the band's live return, after it was confirmed at the end of last year that Casablancas, Albert Hammond Jr., Nick Valensi, Fabrizio Moretti, and Nikolai Fraiture will also perform as part of Spain's BBK Festival and Doctor Music Festival in July.
Further festival dates in Europe and the rest of the world are to be announced in the coming months.
