It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for as we can now reveal the first acts for OXEGEN 2010! We asked you to choose who you most wanted to see at this year’s OXEGEN and now we reveal a line-up crammed with your favourites!
Hip hop superstar Eminem makes his OXEGEN debut! It’ll be his first Irish appearance since the phenomenal sold out shows to 100,000 fans in Punchestown in 2003.
Muse are one of the great live bands and were voted by Q as ‘The Best Band In The World Today’. Latest album, ‘The Resistance’ reached No.1 in 19 countries and spawned the huge single ‘Uprising’.
US megastar Jay-Z has dominated the rap industry for a generation. He’s currently ruling the airwaves with hit single Empire State Of Mind which reached No.2 in the Irish charts.
The Black Eyed Peas’ three No.1 singles, Boom Boom Pow, I Gotta Feeling, and Meet Me Halfway made history in 2009 with the longest ever successive stay at the top of the US charts with 20 weeks at Number 1.
Kasabian last rocked OXEGEN in 2006. They’ve since released two number one albums and picked up a Brit Award for Best Band last week.
The Prodigy are one of the most successful dance acts of all time and have a fearsome live reputation. You guys can look forward to an awesome, no holds barred performance!
It’s been quite a year for Florence + The Machine. She won ‘Best Album’ at The Brits for ‘Lungs’ and also picked up ‘Best International Band’ at The Meteor Music Awards.
Paolo Nutini also triumphed at The Meteors, winning ‘Best International Album’ for ‘Sunny Side Up’. Paolo is sure to be on many of your must see lists at OXEGEN this year.
