Boundary-pushing electronic outfit Swedish House Mafia have confirmed that Example will join the bill for their massive outdoor show at Milton Keynes Bowl on Saturday 14th July. Also on the bill are Calvin Harris and Madeon.
The gargantuan ‘One Night Stand’ show in front of 65,000 people at the Milton Keynes National Bowl will be a first of its kind for the trio. Highlights of the event will be recorded by BBC Radio One for a future broadcast. Swedish House Mafia will join an enviable list of music legends who have headlined the National Bowl including Oasis, Green Day, Metallica, Eminem and Foo Fighters. The list of artists who have played Madison Square Garden reads like a veritable who’s who of music dating from the late sixties to the present day.
British singer-rapper-songwriter Example recently gave fans an update about his forthcoming new album, revealing that it was full of "metal and grunge riffs".
Example has been hard at work in the studio making sure his fourth studio album, the follow-up to last year’s ‘Playing in the Shadows’, is finished on time. Posting via his Twitter, Example has been making sure his fans know what he’s doing and what they can be expect when his album drops. One of his more recent tweets suggest that there’ll be some serious headbanging at his future gigs.
“Productive day in the studio today,” Example posted. “I've got a short list of three songs for the next single. Will be out in June I reckon. Recording electric guitars all day tmrw for 5 new songs. Lots of metal/grunge riffs on the next album.”
Example recently signed a record deal with Mercury, a subsidiary of Universal Records, to release his material in the UK. Speaking of the move, the rapper said: “I'm pleased to have signed to a major label like Mercury/Universal in the US. It was important to me to sign with someone who understands not only my ambitions but also the way I work. I want to do it on my own terms; I enjoy a good challenge and can’t wait to get started.”
