It's been almost two decades since we first heard ‘Losing my Edge', ‘Drunk Girls', or ‘Daft Punk Is Playing at my house' by LCD Soundsystem who will no doubt ignite the crowds at MEO Kalorama into dancing and singing. Massive Attack stands central to music history, credited with bringing trip-hop to the world alongside Portishead and Tricky. Their legacy remains essential making them a must-see at the festival.

Sam Smith will unveil their soulful voice and immaculate songs at MEO Kalorama, promising a performance that captivates. Jungle will be bringing a fusion of soul, funk, hip-hop, and electronica to the crowds at MEO Kalorama.

The third edition of MEO Kalorama also welcomes the electronic duo Overmono, formed by Welsh brothers Tom and Ed Russell, the eclectic British Yard Act will be bringing their infectious energy and thought-provoking lyrics to the festival stage. The post-punk Leeds quartet, English Teacher, and Mercury Prize winners Ezra Collective will be making their debut at the summer's conclusion event. Peggy Gou's contagious beats will dominate the dance floor at MEO Kalorama.

The Smile, a unique art-rock/post-punk project with Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead will dazzle crowds with their genre-defying performance. The Postal Service, renowned electro-pop icons with timeless melodies, and indie rock legends Death Cab For Cutie, celebrated for their emotive lyrics and infectious melodies, take the stage at MEO Kalorama for two stellar performances.

Ana Moura who blends fado with African roots and electronica, promises an irresistible celebration of diversity at MEO Kalorama. Ana Lua Caiano, a boundary-pushing artist who seamlessly merges Portuguese popular music with electronic influences is also joining the bill, as well as the indie-rock of the Barcelos fab-trio, Glockenwise.
