Common People, our two-day metropolitan adventure is about to become super-glamorous with the announcement of our legendary Sunday headliner, and one of 2015’s hottest acts joining the bill. Already featuring the unstoppable Fatboy Slim in Saturday’s pole position, and a giddy rush of pop stars, underground legends and the most exciting new music around, all dusted with a just touch of Bestival’s unique magic, Southampton Common will be the only possible destination for the bank holiday on 23rd & 24th May.
Common People curator, Rob da Bank said: “Grace Jones is a global icon in music and style, and an all-round radical lady, who has made some of my favourite records... She also put on one of my favourite festival performances ever, at Bestival, so I can't wait to watch her at Common People!”
Bringing untold sophistication to Common People’s debut outing, our Sunday night headliner will be the incomparable Grace Jones. A true force of nature, and the consummate pop star, Grace Jones is nothing short of a dazzling live spectacle! The perfect bill-topper for a grand day out from the Bestival team, Grace mixes high art and a deep sense of theatricality with balls-out, booty shaking grooves. Her most recent album, 2008s Hurricane was a timely reminder that she’s still a player, and with last year’s Nightclubbing reissue and a new album imminent, Grace Jones’ effortless panache will be totally unmissbale.
