. London’s own Knucks joins the line-up after making a name for himself with his West African-inspired skits and unorthodox style.

Meanwhile, sister act Ibeyi head to All Points East after the long-awaited release of their upcoming album Spell 31, their first in five years. The Afro-French Cuban duo, Lisa and Naomi, sing in multiple languages.
