Green Day announced as first headliner of Nova Rock 2017!
Organizers of the Austrian Nova Rock festival are pleasure to announce the return of Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame inductees and Grammy Award winners Green Day in 2017. American puk-rock band will headline the 13th edition of the festival which will take place on Pannonia fields in Nickelsdorf, from 15th to 17th June. Tickets to the festival are sold on www.oeticket.com, starting at 159,90€.
Since breaking through in 1994 with the Dookie album, Green Day – formed by lead singer and guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tré Cool, have become one of the world’s biggest bands with over 75 million worldwide sales. After a succession of hit albums, their 2004 rock opera American Idiot reignited the band’s popularity with a younger generation. They’ve won five Grammy Awards and in 2015 were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
This year, Green Day has released their 12th studio album Revolution Radio – a potent 12-track blitz of angst-ridden anthems that unites Green Day’s fully formed stylistic approach with lyrical themes that address the complexities and uncertainties of modern day existence. Musically, the album is raw, visceral, and fearless – solidifying the band’s reign as one of the leading voices in rock music.
On Nova Rock 2017 will also perform following bands:
BROILERS * ESKIMO CALLBOY * HATEBREED * IN FLAMES * JAMARAM * ME FIRST & THE GIMME GIMMES * PROPHETS OF RAGE * RANCID * SSIO * many more to come…
