Six acts to see at TRNSMT

Arctic Monkeys

Main Stage, 1 July

Only UK festival appearance from the swaggering Sheffield indie rockers who have recently returned in lounge lizard mode with their sixth album, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. Nuff said.

Franz Ferdinand

Main Stage, 8 July

Of a similar vintage to Arctic Monkeys and as snake-hipped, svelte and selfconfident as ever.

Sigrid

King Tut’s Stage, 1 July

According to the BBC, Sigrid is the Sound of 2018 – expect smart, slick pop from this unpretentious Norwegian chanteuse who introduced herself with the pop plea

Don’t Kill My Vibe.

Jhus

Main Stage, 30 June

In a bill dominated by guitar bands, London rapper J Hus is a breath of fresh air – or more likely a barrage of heavy duty hip-hop. His debut album

Common Sense was nominated for the Mercury Prize.

Catholic Action

King Tut’s Stage, 8 July

Plenty of homegrown talent on offer – pick of the pack are these local indie rockers who come bearing a winning mix of melody and mayhem.

Queen + Adam Lambert

Main Stage, 6 July

Drop whatever you’re doing and get those arms aloft to hail the longreining monarchs of pomp rock, now with added Adam Lambert. ■
