We’re thrilled to welcome The Bug feat. Warrior Queen, and Hang Linton to the Supersonic Festival 2025 line-up. They join an already formidable programme that promises a powerful celebration of sound, resistance, and radical joy.
We’re excited to host The Bug feat. Warrior Queen at this year’s Supersonic Festival, bringing together two formidable forces for a powerful, bass-driven live experience. Their collaboration promises an electrifying set where Warrior Queen’s commanding voice meets The Bug’s seismic production, creating a soundscape that’s raw, immersive, and unforgettable.
The Bug is the visionary project of Kevin Martin, known for his punishing live shows and an expansive catalogue including Techno Animal, King Midas Sound, and Razor X Productions. . His sets are renowned for their intensity, fusing industrial dub, dancehall, grime, and acid ragga with collaborations from MCs like Flowdan, Dis Fig, and Manga Saint Hilaire. Warrior Queen, born in Kingston, Jamaica, brings a lifetime of musical heritage, rising from local sound systems to global stages. Her music is a powerful blend of reggae, dancehall, and UK underground influences. She’s collaborated with industry legends including Dub Gabriel, Skream, and Lee “Scratch” Perry, and remains a dynamic presence on the scene.
“Its always a pleasure to come back to Birmingham for the mighty SUPERSONIC festival… Without doubt one of my favourite festivals, full stop. It has never compromised, and always stayed fiercely 101% independent, which i guess you could say I also aspire to myself… So I would definitely call Lisa Meyer and her crew my soul sisters/brothers. This year, I will come back to perform with Warrior Queen. Getting the call from Supersonic, certainly brings back amazing memories, as Warrior and I played the inaugral Supersonic festival in 2003(Alongside Coil, and LCD Sound System, if memory serves correct), we have zero intention of mellowing..lol…Fire will be in the house, fully… We are psyched !” – The Bug
Hang Linton is a fearless sonic rebel from Leeds, fusing avant-funk, dance-punk, and breakbeats into a raw, unapologetic sound that challenges the polished and conventional. Armed with a sampler, synths, and relentless energy, Hang Linton channels the spirit of counterculture movements, delivering performances that are both chaotic and deeply authentic. Named one of NME’s HOT 100 for 2025 and a BBC 6 Music “Hot Tip,” they’ve earned praise for their debut EP Demonstrations, including a 4/5-star review from NME, and have shared stages with Yard Act and Kimya Dawson. Their intense, euphoric sound earned them DJ Mag’s Electronic Music Award, making them one of the UK’s most exciting new artists. As Capsule, we were lucky enough to host Hang Linton in Bradford in celebration of the 1 in 12 and Bradford City of Culture 2025. There, Hang brought an unforgettable mix of intense energy and pure joy to the stage, captivating everyone in the room. We’re beyond excited to see them perform again at Supersonic!
