The first wave of acts for the 2017 edition of Norway's Øya Festival is here, with MØ, Angel Olsen, and Sigrid leading the way.
Car Seat Headrest, Charlotte Dos Santos, The Hellacopters, and Hester V75 are all also set to play the event.
In our review of this year's exceptional extravaganza we wrote that it was "superbly organised, free-flowing, friendly, not a single flashpoint of trouble and not a single queue... Øya [is] close to the perfect festival."
Øya Festival 2017 takes place 8-12 August at Tøyenparken, Oslo. Find out more.
