British band the Editors will join the EXIT line up playing on the Main Stage on Friday 8th July. Having two platinum selling albums under their belt and over 1 million album sold worldwide, Editors are a festival favourite with a unique blend of dark indie rock with emotive depth and whirling synths with frontman Tom swapping from guitar and piano throughout their live shows. Editors have played sell out shows worldwide and their EXIT performance is sure to be an explosive show at the fortress and not to be missed.

Hailing from Philadelphia USA, Santi Whie is the vivacious frontwoman behind Santigold who will be adding more style and glamour to the Main Stage. Tribal island rhythms merged with flavorful digital chirps and blips, culminating in an original sound that draws from many influences. Santigold has toured with the likes of Coldplay and Kanye West, had her music featured in commercials, TV series and video games and nominated for numerous awards Santigold is now a world class artist in her own right with a new single called ‘Go’ Featuring Karen O and produced by Switch. We look forward to hearing this live and direct on the EXIT main stage!

Rebel Rave hails from the Crosstown Rebels label TV show that started in 2008. The program showcased the likes of Seth Troxler and Jamie Jones and a selection of those artists will now be part of the Rebel Rave tour that will touch down in the EXIT Dance Arena featuring Damian Lazarus, Jamie Jones and Seth Troxler.

EXIT is one of the most highly regarded festivals in Europe, being nominated for ‘Best Overseas Festival’ in the UK Festival Awards for the past 4 years, winning the coveted title in 2007 and runner up in 2010. In addition EXIT has also been nominated for ’Best Major Festival’ in European Festival Awards for 2 years running and has been shortlisted in the ‘Artists Favourite Festival’ Category.

And not forgetting the festivals roots and special meaning – Launched 12 years ago as a student initiated protest against the communist Milosevic regime, EXIT has proved that music is a universal language that can connect and bring people together to make the world a better place. EXIT continues to evolve and bring like-minded people together and although it gets bigger each year, the sentiment and unique vibe remains the same.
