Director Melvin Benn said of Sioux: “What a privilege it is to welcome the iconic Siouxsie to the Latitude Festival. Siouxsie has been an enduring trailblazer and her impact across musical culture is colossal.
“Uncompromisingly defiant, Siouxsie’s powerful body of work is incomparable. There has never been a live performer like her and there probably never will be!”
Also confirmed for the festival is The Kooks, Metronomy, Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott, Black Midi, The Lighting Seeds, The Proclaimers, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Young Fathers, The Beths, The Big Moon, The Dinner Party, and lots more.
Further acts will be announced in due course.
