Due to unforeseen circumstances, Bia and Jim Legxacy have unfortunately been forced to cancel their shows this summer, including their performances at Roskilde Festival.
Instead, we are pleased to welcome Danish post-punk heroes Iceage, who will perform on Wednesday 1 July at 17:00 on Eos, and Ghanaian-Australian artist Genesis Owusu, who takes over Jim Legxacy’s slot on Lagune on Friday at 20:00.
In just a few years, Genesis Owusu has established himself as one of the most distinctive new voices in international music.
The Ghanaian-Australian artist arrives at the festival with the acclaimed new album Redstar Wu & the Worldwide Scourge, where rap, punk, soul, funk and experimental pop merge into a sound that is both politically charged and deeply compelling.
Iceage return to Roskilde Festival with their new album For Love and Grace & the Hereafter, which has received glowing reviews and once again demonstrates a band in constant evolution.
Fifteen years after breaking through with New Brigade, the Copenhagen post-punk veterans appear more vital than ever, continuing to expand and refine their sound without sacrificing the dark intensity and uncompromising energy that made them an international breakthrough.
Bia: “It breaks my heart to share that, due to unforeseen circumstances, I’m unable to perform at Roskilde Festival. To my European fans, I’m incredibly sorry that I won’t get to spend this summer with you. Thank you for always showing me so much love!!”
Jim Legxacy: “I won’t be able to make some of my upcoming festival dates. It wasn’t an easy decision to make. I’m sorry to everyone who was planning to see me.”
