Sonic City Festival is an alternative 3-day music fest in Kortrijk, Belgium where eclecticisim is key and discovery is imminent. The Sonic City concept is clear and simple: curators are appointed and receive all the artistic freedom to select and handpick the line-up.
Bow down to Liverpool’s finest, Hannah Merrick and Craig Whittle – the duo behind the deliciously moody sounds of King Hannah. Their haunting indie rock had us in a trance from the first listen... so naturally, we handed them the keys to the kingdom. Together, we’ve invited our favourite bands to the most exciting indoor festival.
Curated by King Hannah: King Hannah, Joe Gideon, Unwound + more names TBA
Curated by Sonic City: Adult DVD, Circuit Des Yeux, Danalogue, DEADLETTER, Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek, Destroyer, Dog Race, eat-girls, Fat Dog, GHOSTWOMAN, GRUNDEIS, M(h)aol, Micah P. Hinson, Model/Actriz, Protomartyr, Tunde Adebimpe, Use Knife, Wolfschmidt, Yowie + more names TBA
Bow down to the curator of Sonic City 2025: King Hannah! Liverpool duo Hannah Merrick and Craig Whittle – better known as King Hannah – made waves with their hauntingly beautiful debut album I’m Not Sorry, I Was Just Being Me. Their brooding indie rock has a timeless feel, drawing comparisons to legends like PJ Harvey and Portishead.
