ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF CONFIRMED FOR WAY OUT WEST!

In Anna von Hausswolff’s artistic practice lies a creativity that is both unpredictable and boundless. With the pipe organ as her natural instrument of choice, she has long explored the ethereal qualities of breath in her sound: inhaling, holding, and letting go. Sometimes this takes the form of apocalyptic, heavy rock songs; other times, more intimate organ pieces.

On her new album ICONOCLASTS, she has once again evolved her sound, where darkness, weight, primal force, and experimentation remain recognizable but are blended with new, brighter, and more unexpected dimensions. The album, which features guests such as Iggy Pop and Ethel Cain, has received stunning reviews all over (including a 5/5 in The Guardian!), truly cementing Anna von Hausswolff’s role on the international scene. Next summer she’ll perform a long-awaited homecoming show in Slottsskogen with a full band during Way Out West!

1-day and 2-day tickets go on sale Thursday Nov 27 at 10.00. Before then, you will also know which act is playing what day. 3-day tickets are already on sale – buy yours now!

OKLOU [FR] CONFIRMED FOR WAY OUT WEST!

Every year, there is at least one artist who rewrites the rules of pop. Someone who doesn’t just expand the landscape but alters its emotional temperature. In 2025, that artist is Oklou. With her new album ”choke enough”, the French producer, composer, and vocalist delivers a vision so singular it feels less like a release and more like a new coordinate in contemporary music. Classically trained yet driven by an urge to break boundaries, Oklou moves through genres like someone slipping between dream states. Her music distant one moment, direct and disarming the next. And the guests she invites speak volumes: Bladee and FKA twigs, two of the most futuristic artists of their generation, don’t just appear on the album, they affirm Oklou’s place on the new frontier. With Oklou, the future doesn’t arrive with a bang but rather with a quiet shock. This summer at Way Out West, her intimate, surreal world will take physical form in Slottskogen.

1-day and 2-day tickets go on sale Thursday Nov 27 at 10.00. Before then, you will also know which act is playing what day. 3-day tickets are already on sale – buy yours now!

FOUR TET [UK] CONFIRMED FOR WAY OUT WEST!

In recent years, Four Tet has gone from underground visionary to festival headliner, collaborating with global names like Fred again.. and Skrillex. Yet despite his newfound visibility, he’s never lost his ear for detail. On record, the crate-digging curiosity and sense of texture that has defined his music for over two decades remains intact. Four Tet, or Kieran Hebden as he’s also called, has always had one foot planted in club culture — switching between UK-garage rhythms, breakbeat pulses and dancefloor momentum — while the other explores ambient atmospheres, harps and folk-inflected melodies. It’s this unmistakable blend of warmth, rhythm, and experimentation that makes Four Tet’s long-awaited debut at Way Out West one of the most anticipated moments of the summer.

1-day and 2-day tickets go on sale Thursday Nov 27 at 10.00. Before then, you will also know which act is playing what day. 3-day tickets are already on sale – buy yours now!

MOBY [US] CONFIRMED FOR WAY OUT WEST!

Long before superstar DJs became a fixture of global pop culture, Moby was redefining what an electronic artist could be. Emerging from the 1990s underground with a fearless disregard for genre boundaries, he treated dance music not as a closed circuit but as an open field. One where punk energy, ambient minimalism, rave euphoria and gospel-infused soul could coexist. Few artists have shaped modern electronica as profoundly. And nowhere did that impact resonate more powerfully than on his landmark album ”Play” (1999) – a record that rewired the sound of a generation, brought club music to the masses, and became a blueprint for countless producers around the world.

This summer at Way Out West, one of electronic music’s great architects will remind us why his vision remains as vital and curious as ever – his first show in Sweden since 2009!

1-day and 2-day tickets go on sale Thursday Nov 27 at 10.00. Before then, you will also know which act is playing what day. 3-day tickets are already on sale – buy yours now!
