T IN THE PARK have announced Rogue Orchestra will perform David Bowie and Prince songs at this year’s festival.
Opening the Main Stage on Sunday 10th July, Rogue Orchestra will honour the two great legends that music lost this year. They will perform classical versions of some of David Bowie’s best loved songs, finishing up with a Prince medley.
David Bowie was due to headline T in the Park in 2004 but sadly had to bow out due to an injury. Festival Director Geoff Ellis had enquired about booking David Bowie each year for the festival hence felt that a tribute was the right thing to do with the inspiration coming from the performance of Life on Mars by an organist at Kelvingrove which was sent to Geoff by a friend. This year will see Rogue Orchestra bring their own unique take on the classics from David Bowie and Prince to create an unforgettable performance that fans will love.
They join already announced artists The Stone Roses, Calvin Harris, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Disclosure, Courteeners, The 1975, Chase & Status, Catfish and the Bottlemen, Jess Glynne and many, many more at this year’s T in the Park at Strathallan Castle over 8th – 10th July 2016.
