With more special guests for both shows to be announced soon, Ethel Cain and MUNA have been confirmed to open for boygenius at Gunnersbury Park, with Ethel Cain joining boygenius for the show in The Piece Hall’s iconic open-air courtyard.

Raised in the deep south of America, Ethel Cain’s “sound defies definition [straddling] a line between alternative rock, folk, pop, and even country” (Billboard).

After writing, producing and mixing her EP Inbred from the basement of a church in Indiana, it was released last year to critical acclaim, receiving overwhelming support from Pitchfork, Paper Magazine, VICE, Zane Lowe, YouTube, SoundCloud, and Tidal. Recently, Spotify selected Ethel as their first ever transgender EQUAL Ambassador for March 2022, a distinction shared with Billie Eilish, Mickey Guyton, and STAYC.

boygenius and Ethel Cain join the likes of Madness, Sting, Rag’N’Bone Man, James, Embrace, War On Drugs, The Lumineers and Ministry of Sound Classical among the 2023 headliners for ‘Live at The Piece Hall’ with more artists still to be announced.
