Britpop act Suede have been added as headliners for this year's Midi Festival at Sanjia Gang in Pudong. Although Midi's claim that Suede are 'the most astonishing act in the UK since Roxy Music and The Smiths' may be a little overblown, the band were one of the leaders of the mid-'90s Britpop phenomenon and have a big following in China thanks to their 2003 concert here and frontman Brett Anderson's subsequent solo visits.
The band were last in town back in October when they played Shanghai Grand Stage on the same night as The Killers performed at Mercedes-Benz Arena. This time the band will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of their album Dog Man Star, regarded as their best record and featuring singles such as 'The Wild Ones' and 'New Generation'.
Midi Festival is at Sanjia Gang from Friday 25-Sunday 27 April. See full event details.
