If you haven’t already heard of it, Camden Rocks is a one day music bonanza in the heart of London’s diverse district of Camden Town, celebrating all things rock and punk by hosting a multitude of gigs across the town in over twenty different venues.

Camden is well established as the home of all things wonderfully unorthodox, making it the perfect setting for the alternative nature of Camden Rocks. Camden Rocks prides itself on giving up-and-coming bands a platform (even allowing bands to submit themselves to perform – if you are in a band, you can do so here), showcasing talent and indulging the musical sub-genres that are often forgotten by the media… and the presence of acclaimed venues such as the Barfly and The Electric Ballroom doesn’t hurt, either.

Today 14 new acts were added to the line up, joining previously announced performers for this year’s festival such as Young Guns, New Years Day and We Are The Ocean. Today’s additions are:

Yashin

Penetration

Sonic Boom Six

Johnny Foreigner

The St Pierre Snake Invasion

Symmetry

Sky Valley Mistress

Grumble Bee

JOANovARC

Blurred Vision

Desperate Measures

The Fallen State

Duchess

Emily Lee

There are currently a whopping 100 bands set to play at the festival, with over 100 more bands plus a headliner still to be added. Last years performers included Bullet For My Valentine, Skindred, While She Sleeps and Funeral For A Friend, which set a high standard for 2016 – a standard that is sure to be met!

A headliner is due to be announced next week on Tuesday 29th March. Camden Rocks 2016 takes place on Saturday 4th June 2016, and more information/ tickets can be found on the official website.
