Cardiff's Sŵn festival has revealed the next wave of acts for its 2023 edition.
Among the 50 new names joining the line-up are Hak Baker, Picture Parlour, William Doyle, Flamingods, Tapir!, Zzzahara, Our Girl, Acid Klaus, Viji, and The Utopia Strong. Sŵn head of music Adam Williams commented:
"One thing that makes Sŵn so special and exciting to us is that we're able to book the artists across the course of a full year. It means by wave three the focus is on those artists who have emerged in the past few months leading up to the festival like Viji, Picture Parlour, Trout and Flip Top Head. We also welcome better-known artists like Our Girl who make their long-awaited Sŵn Festival debut."
Following Sŵn's 2022 instalment, the festival will return in October for its first full-scale edition since before the COVID-19 pandemic, with shows set to be held across the city centre. Head below to keep up to date with new announcements.
