Bambie, who is also set to play the main stage of Download Festival this year, spoke to NME in May about their upcoming slot, calling it “mental”.
“I can’t wait,” they told NME. “After Eurovision I was like, ‘I’m going to be so bored’. Then I realised I only have a few weeks before Download, so it’s not going to stop,” they said. “It feels even better because obviously I have bits in my music that are metal, but I cross a lot of genres.
“To be given that opportunity again on another amazing platform when I do not fit into the standard box of what you would expect there is incredible. I’m super grateful – I’m going to be waking everyone up!”
In other news, Bambie Thug has accused Eurovision organisers of “not supporting them” amidst Israel commentator controversy.
