Kennedy broke onto the scene in 2019 with his magnetic single ‘Outnumbered’. Since then, his career has flourished, writing his name as one of modern music’s brilliant new voices.

Aplin’s vibrant vocals have built her a cult fanbase, making her one of British music’s mainstay musicians.

Willow Avalon is another breakthrough act joining the BST Hyde Park bill. Described as a country star redefining modern country by Earmilk magazine, the singer has garnered attention due to her viral song ‘Homewrecker’, which pulled in over 7 million streams. The upcoming musician has also been a “must-hear” 2025 country artist by Billboard and a “memorable” name by Holler Country.

Following their viral single ’smoke & a light’ took off, the Hawesville band have amassed over 2.3 million listeners, bringing modern country rock to a new generation of fans.

Born and raised in Alberta, Canada, Noeline Hofmann is a new era talent. The 20-year-old country artist was named Holler Country’s top artist for 2024 — and her name is continuing to boom. The singer performed and wrote ‘Purple Gas’ with headliner Zach Bryan and has continued to pave an incredible path into the industry.

Red dirt-inspired act Waylon Wyatt has gone from construction work to country music. A newcomer to the scene, the self-labelled “small town Arkansas boy” has become a sensation with nearly 3 million listeners online. The newcomer has been spotlighted by Rolling Stone and labelled as “putting his own spin on red dirt” music.

Another act joining the BST Hyde Park bill is newcomer Aaron Rowe. Hailing from Dublin, the singer-songwriter is known for his powerful vocals and emotional storytelling, marking him as one of today’s most promising talents.

British-Indonesian artist Nadia Kadek is quickly becoming a sought-after singer-songwriter. Currently working on her debut project, the musician has a name as a talented acoustic artist, blending influences of indie, pop and folk to create her mesmerising fusion sound.

For Bryan’s second headliner show on Sunday 29 June, the singer-songwriter will be joined by Turnpike Troubadours, Willow Avalon, Ole 60, Noeline Hofmann, Gabriella Rose, Waylon Wyatt, Bo Staloch and Jasper Hodges.

Turnpike Troubadours are all about community. A staple for Country fans, the Oklahoma band have fused with the contemporary music scene. Known for their gritty sound, their debut album, Goodbye Normal Street, charted in the Billboard 200 and Billboard Country Albums chart. Similarly, their 2023 album A Cat In The Rain charted in the top 100 Scottish album charts and landed at number 5 on the Billboard Independent Albums chart and number 9 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.

Born-and-raised Austin artist Bo Staloch is also joining the BST Hyde Park bill. An up-and-coming talent, the artist released his first single, ‘Springtime Red Tulips’, in 2023, which earned over 2.5 million streams online. Now, he’s quickly making his name as a must-see act, with over 300,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.

Homergrown Pacific North West singer-songwriter Gabriella Rose is making music in her own likeness. A breakout country musician, she gained popularity for her single ‘Doublewide’, which has earned over 13 million streams. Channelling her Chrisitian upbringing into 50s-inspired music, her sound has resonated with over 640,000 listeners online, making her one of today’s freshest voices in country.

Kent singer-songwriter Jasper Hodges started writing music inspired by acts like Zach Bryan and Ben Howard. Inspired by them, the new artist has built a promising online following by writing a new song daily to draw in listeners. Hodges’ visceral, cutting acoustic-only sound showcases his authentic lyrics and soulful melodies, making him a new era talent to watch out for.

A unique story, Zach Bryan has steadily risen to superstar status with the songwriting skill of a classic Americana troubadour and collaborations with a range of incredible artists, paving his own road.

Hailing from Oologah, Oklahoma, he has swiftly risen to become one of the most captivating storytellers and voices of his generation. Starting out while serving in the U.S. Navy, he independently released his debut albums, DeAnn (2019) and Elisabeth (2020), gaining a huge following through his YouTube performances. In 2021, after signing to Warner Records and leaving the Navy, he released the 34-track album American Heartbreak, claiming his rightful place in the music world.

Bryan’s breakthrough continued with collaborations alongside Maggie Rogers, Noah Kahan, Bon Iver, and Kacey Musgraves, earning his first U.S. Number 1 single in 2023 with “I Remember Everything” and landing his first Grammy. His music has drawn comparisons to icons like Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, with critics also noting the influence of Bruce Springsteen.

2023’s self-titled album further established him as a modern-day storyteller, with his July 2024 release, The Great American Bar Scene, blending country, bluegrass, rock, and gospel, cementing him as a Gen Z poet and featuring collaborations with John Mayer and Bruce Springsteen. He has amassed over 21 billion global streams, garnered 31 RIAA Gold and Platinum certifications, multiple Grammy nods, and performed sold-out shows worldwide, including the Burn, Burn, Burn tour, and the subsequent Quittin Time Tour both which broke several arena and football stadium attendance records. Bryan is now set to take the stage at London’s BST Hyde Park, continuing the legacy of legends who have graced the Great Oak Stage.

TOM JONES joins the line-up alongside TEXAS, who will headline on Thursday 7th August.

K-pop entertainment giant SM Entertainment, in collaboration with FRONTROW, is bringing SMTOWN LIVE 2025 to the UK for the very first time as part of its 30th anniversary celebrations.

The summer’s biggest K-pop event in Europe is taking place at London’s Allianz Stadium Twickenham on 28 June. The first wave of multi-million-selling stars announced for the line-up today are EXO’s SUHO and CHANYEOL, NCT DREAM, WayV, RIIZE and NCT WISH. Full line-up to be revealed soon!

SMTOWN LIVE 2025 is set to be the first K-pop concert held at the Allianz Stadium, Twickenham, which has hosted concerts for U2, Beyoncé and Lady Gaga.

This is the first time SM’s label-wide concert, SMTOWN LIVE, has been to Europe since 2010’s show in Paris. The trailblazing label is home to some of the planet’s biggest and most influential K-pop stars, including BoA, TVXQ!, SUPER JUNIOR, Girls’ Generation, SHINee, EXO, Red Velvet, NCT 127, NCT DREAM, WayV, aespa and RIIZE.

Tickets go on sale at the end of this month – more details to come.

Leading this first line-up announcement are SUHO and CHANYEOL of EXO, one of the most decorated K-pop groups in history. Over their monumental career, they became the first Korean act to surpass 10 million albums in the 21st Century and the first K-pop group in history to achieve five consecutive million-selling albums. As of January this year, their total equivalent album sales officially exceeded 35 million worldwide. Their most recent group release, 2023’s “Exist”, continued to break their own records, selling over 1 million copies on release day – a first for EXO and a notable feat for a group over a decade into their career.

NCT DREAM, a subgroup of SM Entertainment’s NCT behemoth, returns to London with SMTOWN LIVE just seven months after their headline show at OVO Arena Wembley as part of their massive 2024 world tour ‘THE DREAM SHOW 3: DREAM( )SCAPE’, which spanned 36 shows across Asia, South America, North America, and Europe. In between sold-out tour dates, they released their EP “DREAM( )SCAPE” and full-length album “DREAMSCAPE” in March and November last year respectively, with the former becoming Korea’s best-selling album of the year.

WayV, a six-member Chinese subgroup of NCT, also returns to London for the first time since their UK live debut in June 2023. Since then, they’ve released multiple critically acclaimed albums, including last year’s “FREQUENCY”, which broke their own week one sales records and earned them the historic title of the first non-Korean group to win a first-place award on a Korean music show.

RIIZE is a rising powerhouse among new K-pop boy groups, known for their fresh sound and captivating performances. They hit the scene in 2023 and immediately sold over 1 million copies of their debut album “RIIZING”; a year and a half on, they’ve surpassed 3 million monthly listeners on Spotify and show no signs of slowing. SMTOWN LIVE in London marks their first performance in Europe, heightening anticipation even more for this historic moment.

The newest boy group on SM Entertainment’s roster, NCT WISH – the final sub-group of NCT – similarly make their European debut at the London concert. Already named ‘Rookie of the Year’ at Korea’s Golden Disc Awards, they continue to make a name for themselves globally just a year after their debut, even earning a nomination in the iHeartRadio Music Awards’ ‘Best New Artist (K-pop)’ category.

The MOBO Awards just turned up the heat with the announcement of an electrifying second wave of performers, promising one of the most unforgettable nights in the UK music calendar.

MOBO’s long history of championing R&B continues, not only with a performance by Odeal but also with a one-of-a-kind R&B celebration, led by legendary tastemaker and KISS host DJ Ace and bringing together some of the most powerful voices in UK R&B on one stage. Jaz Karis, Nao, Sasha Keable, Shae Universe and UK R&B royalty Shola Ama will unite for a special performance honouring the genre’s rich legacy and future.

The 2025 MOBO Awards will see an explosive mix of genres and energy brought to the stage with performances from Darkoo, Nova Twins, DJ AG, Pozer and LeoStayTrill at Utilita Arena Newcastle on 18 February.
The Awards will be live-streamed to a global audience on YouTube at 8pm GMT, with an exclusive BBC One broadcast special airing on 21 February.

Odeal will be performing on a night when he is up for three awards: Best R&B/Soul Act Supported by KISS, Best Newcomer and Song of the Year for ‘Soh-Soh’. Pushing the boundaries of R&B, the complex Alté artist credits his genre-surfing musical style to a nomadic life growing up and his ability to cross cultures when he fuses afrobeats with rich and silky R&B vocals. He capped a series of releases in 2024 with the EP Lustropolis, which he described as “a world where I’m comfortable and defeated at the same time, going back to my old habits but also longing for the love that slipped out of my hands”.

The MOBO Awards R&B celebration, led by DJ Ace, will see some of the hottest voices – including three nominees for Best R&B/Soul Act supported by KISS – coming together on the MOBO Awards stage for the first time. Jaz Karis, took in her family’s Gospel, Soca and Soul influence to create her own unique blend of R&B, Soul, Amapiano and Afropop, dropping her debut album Safe Flight in September. Sasha Keable, a former Disclosure collaborator, is hotly tipped for 2025, touted as an ‘artist to watch’ by both Spotify and Amazon. Last year the unique Shaé Universe released the concept album Love’s Letter, exploring the ten messages love might send through life’s journey. The nominees will be joined by East Londoner NAO, who will release her new brand album, Jupiter, on 21st February – her first since 2021’s acclaimed And Then Life Was Beautiful. The lineup is completed by London R&B legend Shola Ama, who shot to fame in 1997 with the Top 5 hit ‘You Might Need Somebody’ and has enjoyed an illustrious career since she was overheard singing on a platform at Hammersmith Tube station at the age of 15.

MOBO has long-championed a breadth of music and the night will feature a performance from MOBO Award-nominated alternative mavericks Nova Twins – Amy Love and Georgia South – who are renowned for their electric live shows and even bigger tunes. The pair have won fans in icons from Tom Morello to Elton John, and this month unveiled the blistering new single ‘Monsters’, a statement of intent that combines roaring power with honest vulnerability, offering a glimpse of a boundary-pushing album to come.

Darkoo kicked off 2025 with her latest single, ‘Focus On Me (All The Sexy Girls In The Club)’, an infectious anthem packed with upbeat afrobeats vibes, and is nominated for Best Female Act In Association with got2b and Song Of The Year for ‘Favourite Girl’ featuring Dess Dior at the MOBO Awards 2025. After exploding onto the scene in late 2019 with the anthemic track ‘Gangsta’ featuring One Acen she has built up more than 4.5 million monthly listeners.

Renowned for his impromptu sets, spreading positivity on the streets of the capital, Tottenham native DJ AG was named Time Out’s Londoner Of The Year for 2024. He has been accompanied by some of the hottest MCs in the business, including Central Cee, Skepta, JME, Craig David, Jorja Smith, Tiwa Savage, Chipmunk, Baby Cham and Krept & Konan to name a few. In the past month, AG has amassed nearly 50 million views on Instagram and TikTok combined. Beyond the street shows and livestreams, he also performs in care homes, youth organisations, schools and rehabilitation centres, all so he can spread joy through music.

At the MOBO Awards ceremony, DJ AG will be joined by nominees in the Best Newcomer category, including Pozer, who broke through in 2024 with his huge single ‘Kitchen Stove’ and who is also nominated for Best Drill Act. Just a year into his career, the Croydon rapper boasts more than 105 million global streams across his short catalogue, catching the attention of and collaborating with industry heavyweights like Stormzy, AJ Tracey and Chase & Status as well as next-gen trailblazers like Nemzzz and Chy Cartier. Also joining DJ AG will be 18-year-old producer and rapper LeoStayTrill, who has a second nomination for Song Of The Year for the viral hit ‘Pink Lemonade’. In January he released the hypnotic and confident ‘Selena’. Boasting millions of monthly listeners on Spotify, more than 2.5 million TikTok video creations, 48 million likes on Tik Tok and over 100 million streams, in only a year, Leo has crashed onto the scene in a spectacular fashion.

MOBO Founder & CEO Kanya King CBE said: “MOBO has always been about shaping cultural moments that celebrate the richness and diversity of music, and this year will be no exception. Our R&B celebration promises to be a defining highlight, alongside an incredible showcase of genres on the MOBO stage. There’s something truly special about bringing these moments to life—experiences that fans can only witness at the MOBO Awards. We can’t wait to unveil even more surprises as we build up to February 18.”

This latest announcement follows the previously confirmed Spice, Krept & Konan, and Bashy, adding to a powerhouse lineup that represents the diverse and ever-evolving landscape of Black music, with the show being staged in Newcastle for the first time. Tickets are available at mobo.com/tickets.

The MOBO Awards announced the nominees across 20 categories for their 2025 edition. This year’s nominations spotlight the incredible breadth of talent across music, TV, and film. The British R&B scene takes center stage, with triple nominees Jorja Smith and Cleo Sol leading the charge in categories like Album of the Year and Best R&B/Soul Act supported by KISS. Central Cee, Ghetts, Sampha and Odeal join them with three nominations each, reflecting the unparalleled creativity driving the UK’s music scene.

Beyond music, the MOBO Awards continue to honour excellence in film and TV, with Netflix’s hit series Supacell and stars from BBC’s EastEnders earning nominations in the Best Performance in a TV Show/Film category. These nods highlight the richness of diverse storytelling and the exceptional talent shaping today’s entertainment industry.
This announcement also comes as part of the broader celebration surrounding the MOBO Awards, with the recently unveiled MOBO Fringe Festival program adding to the excitement. Running from February 13 to February 17, the five-day festival will showcase a spectacular range of events across Newcastle, celebrating music, arts, and culture while championing the city’s creative spirit. From intimate performances to community workshops, the MOBO Fringe offers something for everyone in the lead-up to the UK’s biggest night in Black music and culture.
