These hipsters wearing some serious outfits won’t offer you organic-fair-trade coffee in a warm cup. They’ll make your heart beat faster in a different way: via wild post punk full of passion, fear, rage, euphoria and a motley of emotions processed through amps, effects and hands of five guitar lumberjacks from Bristol. BBC, Louder Than War, The Line of Best Fit or Annie Mac all agree it would be hard to find a band with wilder and more frenetic music to offer. Visitors at our festival don’t have to look any further as IDLES are the latest confirmed name for Pohoda 2017. → read more
Parisian duo Acid Arab play acid house inspired by melodies and rhythmic structures of oriental music that causes people to fall into a trance. They play Eastern music on analogue rhythmic and bass boxes and create oriental acid, which is a fusion of cold techno, emotions and drama-charged orient.

It is not customary for a homeless English street musician from the Paris underground to conquer French festivals. It is not customary for a debut of an unknown artist to receive the rating of 8 out of ten from newspapers such as The Observer and The New York Times. It is not customary for a budding artist to win the Mercury Prize and leave behind names such as Florence + the Machine, Aphex Twin, and Jamie XX. But it is a good practice for Mercury Prize winners to play at Pohoda. We are therefore honoured to announce that Benjamin Clementine will perform at the Trenčín airport. → read more
The band started as a lo-fi electro-punk band for connoisseurs, and its fan base has grown mainly due to their superb concerts.

Supported by the eccentric dance expression of singer Samuel T. Herring, the video went viral and the band gained recognition not just from Pitchfork reviewers but also millions of people around the world. Future Islands are now an American synth-pop icon that can be seen on big stages of the most famous festivals, and at Pohoda, too, in a few months. → read more
