Slam Dunk Festival has added some exciting new names to their 2020 line up.
We’ve previously brought you news of the Temple Newsam alternative rock festival announcing headline performances from Sum 41 and Don Broco.
Now more names have been added to the bill with Counterparts and Blood Youth being added to the festival’s Jägermeister Stage.
Previously, the hosts previously announced Sheffield’s favourite sons While She Sleeps as the stage headliner.
In addition to the ground-breaking headline performance from While She Sleeps and highly anticipated return of Counterparts, the Jägermeister stage will play host to punk incarnate Refused, welcome the reunion of homegrown hardcore in Your Demise and give way to the visceral Stray From The Path.
Fellow Canadians and heavy icons Comeback Kid will be stepping onto the coveted stage following an unmissable performance from Australian mob Deez Nuts and opening performance from Blood Youth.
Brendan Murphy, from Counterparts, said: “Slam Dunk is one of the best festivals we’ve ever been a part of, and we’re so stoked to do it again.”
In a band statement, Blood Youth, said: “We're stoked to be playing Slam Dunk 2020, this festival took a chance on us four years ago when we were first getting started and we've been eager to return ever since.”
