Laurie Anderson, Mica Levi and more will play this year's Terraforma festival

Terraforma festival returns to its base of the Villa Arconti outside Milan this July, and it's now been confirmed that Laurie Anderson, Mica Levi and more will feature at the event.

The theme for this year's festival is 'language', "as both a means and exploration," in the words of the festival's organisers. Also confirmed today are Caterina Barbieri, DJ Stingray, Bambounou and Daniel Higgs.

Laurie Anderson's set will see her present in Italy for the first time a show called 'The Language of the Future'. It's a performance that combines spoken word narration, electric violin and digital orchestra and visuals.

More names will be added to the line-up in the coming months. This year's event runs from July 5-7. You can find more information, and get tickets, here. Read our review of 2017's event here.
