Skaņu Meźs has unveiled the first wave of acts playing its 2025 event this October.
Returning once again to its base of Hanzas Perons in Riga, Latvia, the festival will this year take in a headline performance from These New Puritans, in the wake of the release of their new album, Crooked Wing.
Also lined up to play are Shabaka Hutchings & Hamid Drake; Joan La Barbara; Sega Bodega; Fatboi Sharif; Kilbourne; and Muqata’a. Further acts are set to be added to the bill in the coming months.
Skaņu Mežs is one of a number of european festivals that participates in the SHAPE+ programme, which is a European Union-funded platform for innovative music and audiovisual art that supports various Europe-based artists working within experimental and electronic music each year.
