Christine and the Queens to Curate London’s Meltdown Festival 2023

Christine and the Queens will curate the 2023 edition of Meltdown Festival on London’s South Bank. He picks up the mantle from Grace Jones, who helmed this year’s edition, and follows curators including David Bowie, Patti Smith, and Scott Walker. A mix of ticketed shows and free outdoor concerts, the festival will run from June 9-18. The first acts will be announced in the spring.

In a press release, Christine and the Queens, also known as Redcar, said, “I will actually pick musicians that have some gut-wrenching quality, and I wish for all of us to stroll around in those ten days being rejuvenated by artistic gestures. Discoveries. The time Meltdown takes is quite exquisite, the abundance feels appropriately generous too. We need this for ourselves, art in the city, art for the citizen, collective catharsis, a wonderful purge of the soul. I hope you’ll enjoy this glorious edition and again, long live poetry that burns and musicians crazy and brave enough to keep going – they are shaping the emotions of the future. Let’s thank them all!”

This month, Christine and the Queens released his new album, Redcar les adorables étoiles. He plays London’s Meltdown venue the Southbank Centre tonight.
