Frank Ocean Announces 2017 Festival Performances
Frank Ocean is about to have a “Pretty Sweet” festival run in 2017.
The Blonde superstar is set to headline three music festivals next year, according to Consequence of Sound. That includes the Hangout Music Festival in Gulf Shores, Ala.; the Panorama Music Festival in New York; and the Sasquatch! Music Festival in Quincy, Wash.
On top of that, Ocean is headed overseas for even more shows. On Tuesday (Nov. 29), he confirmed forthcoming appearances at Denmark’s Northside Fest in June and London’s Lovebox Festival in July.
The shows on this festival jaunt mark Frank’s return to the stage after a three-year hiatus. His album break finally came to an end earlier this year with Endless and Blonde. Although both projects are ineligible for Grammys, the efforts have been critically praised and they mark a new independent phase in Ocean’s career.
“This has always been my life and no one else’s,” he recently told The New York Times. “And that’s how it’s always been since the day I came in it.”
