The Great Escape 2014 has confirmed that Example will perform on the festival’s biggest stage, at The Brighton Dome, on Thursday May 8.
The rapper, whose fifth studio album will be released in June this year, first performed at The Great Escape to a packed crowd in a tiny 200-capacity venue in 2008; Not long after came the release of ‘Wont go Quietly’ which rapidly climbed to the top of the UK charts.
Example said of his performance:
“A lot has changed for me since I performed at The Great Escape in 2008 in a pub to about 30 people! I played there again in 2011 so it’s a real honour to return a 3rd time and play on the festival’s biggest stage. It's been an amazing journey – playing all the past hits and loads from the unreleased album 5, I will ensure this is a show to remember!”
Today’s addition completes the line-up for The Great Escape 2014’s trio of Dome Shows, which already see Wild Beasts and Kelis, supported by Ella Eyre, performing on Friday and Saturday night respectively. For a full list of confirmed acts and ticket details, head to greatescapefestival.com.
