Brighton favourites The Kooks will headline the Saturday night, performing their platinum-selling debut album Inside In / Inside Out. The album catapulted the band into fame, selling more than 2 million copies and helping define an era of music. Two decades since their debut, The Kooks are resonating with a whole new generation. With sold-out tours and epic returns to festival main stages, the band has firmly cemented their place in the hearts of Gen Z fans. The album includes enduring anthems She Moves in Her Own Way, Ooh La and Naïve, and remains a staple part of indie culture more than 15 years after its release. Joining them are London heroes The Vaccines, who will perform their explosive debut What Did You Expect From The Vaccines? in its entirety. Released in 2011 and containing breakout hits If You Wanna, Post Break-Up Sex and Nørgaard, the album became one of the fastest-selling debuts of the decade and helped define a new wave of British indie energy. Completing the trio are Scottish icons The Fratellis, performing their beloved debut Costello Music from start to finish. The album launched the band onto the global stage with hits including Chelsea Dagger, Henrietta and Whistle For The Choir, earning the group a BRIT Award and setting the tone for one of the most recognisable sounds of the era.

A vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and producer, he created the music project The Streets with an everyman approach and the idea of defining a new landscape where homegrown rappers could thrive.

Brighton indie rockers with a pop sensibility. The Kooks came bopping out of Brighton at an almost serendipitous moment, catching the mid ’00s guitar band wave at its apex and riding it all the way to considerable commercial success.
