Placebo is les Ardentes’ biggest rock headliner ever in the festival’s history! In seven albums and almost twenty years, Placebo has become a international rock top act without ever losing any of its singularities: an inimitable punk pop sound, impressive live sets, dark melodies and the unique voice of their leader.

Over the years Placebo has ripened from the glam universe of early « Nancy Boy » and « Teenage Angst », to the mastery of their latest « Loud Like Love » without forgetting their topper « Without You I’m Nothing », and turned to the flaming band par excellence. By far THE band for Les Ardentes!

But there is more to come. Our list of urban acts is becoming amazing. We are excited to confirm: fashion icon Rita Ora,  the Jay-Z of the South aka T.I.,  « Man of the Year » Schoolboy Q and his mate Isaiah Rashad of Kendrick Lamar’s label and Swedish Elliphant, the fresh signature on Diplo’s Mad Decent.

Looking for pure breed pop music? Check out Joan as Police Woman and Cacadeur or have a listen to Belgian Mathilde Renault’s compositions. You want more guitars? Harder? Here you have Palma Violets, Madensuyu, Archie Broson Outfit, The SOre Losers and The Bots. Feel like dancing? Jimmy Edgar and Factory Floor of James Murphy’s DFA label are in the place.

And what about the Flaming City bands? Liege will be proudly represented on stage as usual. This year we have The Feather, the solo Project of Dan San’s Thomas Médard, Leaf House’s indie pop, the R’TARDATAIRES’s slick rhymes and flow and the OLD JAZZY BEAT MASTAZZ’ grooves.
