Steelhouse, the rock festival on top of a Welsh mountain, has announced the first 13 acts for its 16th year, taking place from 23rd to 25th July 2027.
In a UK festival exclusive, local heroes Florence Black will headline the opening night. Northern powerhouses Massive Wagons make their first return since 2019 as Sunday special guests.
Making his Steelhouse debut, Mötley Crüe guitarist John 5 will play with his band The Creatures, fronted for the occasion by Wednesday 13. Their set will include songs from across 5’s career with Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie and David Lee Roth as well as the Crüe.
Bass hero Billy Sheehan returns with his new outfit The Fell, and British melodic rock institution FM play the mountain for the first time since 2015. Fast-rising UK bands Jayler, These Wicked Rivers, Asomvel, Fireheart and Aethoria feature across the weekend. Pennsylvania groove merchants Crobot fly in, Australian party crew Sisters Doll make their debut, and country rock star Kezia Gill adds a crossover twist.
“It is an honour to headline Steelhouse!” said Florence Black. “From our first appearance in 2017 to every time we’ve played since, this festival has always meant so much to us. As a Welsh band, headlining a Welsh festival so close to home makes it even more special.”
Massive Wagons frontman Baz Mills added: “Last time we were up the mountain was 2019, and we’ve bloody missed the place! We can’t wait to get back up that mountain and make some noise!”
Organisers Max and Mikey said Florence Black follow Those Damn Crows and Skindred as Welsh bill toppers, and that this is the band’s only festival show next summer.
Tickets, VIP upgrades and payment plans for weekend tickets and glamping are available now.
