Roadburn 2025 - Announce Official Artist And First Batch Of Bands
After an initial announcement consisting of Altın Gün, Chat Pile, and a newly reunited Kylesa, Roadburn now announced the first proper batch of bands for the 2025 edition and the official artist. See the list below.
The festival posted the following: "With this announcement, you can see some of the kinds of voices we want to amplify and hopefully you will get a sense of the spirit in which Roadburn 2025 is being made behind the scenes. Whether you're coming for the first time, you're here every year, you're playing or attending or just reading a quote on the internet, we want to inspire and to bring people together, to celebrate and renew our beloved underground."
The festival also announced that Nona Limmen will be the official artist for Roadburn 2025.
The festival posted the following: "We are very excited and honoured to present Nona Limmen as our official artist for Roadburn 2025. If you attended the 2024 edition, you may have noticed her captivating exhibition, with her ominous work hanging throughout the frames of the 013 venue.
"Nona is an independent, acclaimed photographer, and her main body of work comprises striking, thought-provoking photography standing on its own as towering “homages to the twilight hour,” as she has described them before. However, she has also provided work for other pivotal artists such as Chelsea Wolfe, Dool and Phoebe Bridgers.
"Her art explores mythology, symbolism and psychology – essentially, the hidden elements of human nature. We all carry unconscious parts of our personality with us, but we try to actively keep them in check. The result is always an imposing force of nature, as the work she has made for Roadburn 2025 clearly shows. It was a case of immediate bonding – “the worlds of Nona Limmen and Roadburn absolutely belong together,” says Roadburn’s artistic director Walter, “intertwined as they are in their depictions of imagination and connection.”
"Nona told us “It symbolises a glimpse into my own journey in embracing the tempest of the unknown, one that ultimately became the inspiration and driving force behind the artwork. In a time of chaos and storms, I hope it can be a doorway to that world of stillness for others too.”"
