Massive Attack announce line-up for Act 1.5 concert

Massive Attack have announced the full line-up of artists that will be taking to the stage with them as a part of their ‘Act 1.5’ show.

The trip hop collective – which features members Robert ‘3D’ Del Naja and Grant ‘Daddy G’ Marshall – will be returning to their home city of Bristol on 25 August 2024 for their first UK show for five years.

The show celebrates 25 years of climate activism by Massive Attack.

The ‘Teardrop’ group will be joined on the bill by three-time Grammy winner Killer Mike, Lankum, ‘Let’s Walk In the Night’ singer Sam Morton and dj Milo.

Massive Attack hope to set a new precedent for decarbonising live music events by powering the show solely through green energy suppliers Ecotricity and Grid Faeries – which will hopefully see ‘Act 1.5’ become the largest show with the lowest carbon and greenhouse gas emissions.

When the group announced the show in December 2023, 3D said Massive Attack was “chuffed” to be returning to Bristol, South West England, and emphasised the band was looking to make a difference regarding climate change.

In a statement, he explained: “We’re chuffed to play our home city again and to be able do it in the right way December.

“In terms of climate change action there are no excuses left; offsetting, endless seminars and diluted declarations have all been found out – so live music must drastically reduce all primary emissions and take account of fan travel.

“Working with pioneering partners on this project means we can seriously move the dial for major live music events and help create precedents that are immediately available.”
