The Killers To Headline Hard Rock Calling Festival

The Killers will headline the opening day of the Hard Rock Calling festival in London's Hyde Park.

The American band will be joined on June 26th by The Kooks.

Organiser John Probyn said booking The Killers to play at the event, which is taking place over three days for the first time, was a “no brainer”.

As previously reported, the remaining two days of the festival will be headlined by Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen.

Other acts scheduled to appear across the weekend include Fleet Foxes, Seasick Steve and The Gaslight Anthem.
