Noughties icon, Kate Nash is the latest name announced for Sound City in May 2026!
The UK’s inner-city festival of new music discovery will be the first event of Liverpool Music Month, taking place throughout the City Centre.
Nash will both perform and speak in a special in-person Q&A at the Sound City+ Conference on Friday 1st May.
She adds her name to the list of female artists featured as part of the lead festival for Keychange, a global movement focused on the restructuring of the music industry to achieve gender equality.
Sound City‘s Managing Director, Becky Ayres, commented: “We are thrilled to have Kate join us at Sound City, as one of the UK’s era-defining artists as well as someone who leads from the front on issues of gender equality, diversity and making careers in music sustainable, addressing injustice at every stage of her incredible career.
“Being discovered at the start of a digitised music era, signing a major label deal, enjoying chart success, pursuing a successful acting career in ‘Glow’ and continuing to write, record and perform, she is an inspiration.
“Her set at Sound City will be unmissable for the songs and to witness an iconic British, female artist at the height of her powers.”
The latest announcement shares 34 bands and artists who are set to grace the multiple city centre venues, including Marina Josephina, Glasgow’s Mercy Girl, Liverpool’s own Courting, Michael Aldag, and Charlie Noordeweir.
They join the previously announced Westside Cowboy, Jalen Ngonda, Keo, Brooke Combe, and The Molotovs.
Taking place on Saturday 2nd – Sunday 3rd May 2026, limited remaining tickets can be found at www.soundcity.uk.com.
