Yungblud spoke to NME about his big plans for BludFest when the festival was announced back in March.
When asked what it meant to be following in the footsteps of David Bowie, Queen, Green Day and Linkin Park in headlining Milton Keynes Bowl, he told NME: “Wow! What the fuck? Thatâs the fucking mad, isnât it?
“BludFest is happening! Iâm launching my own festival. I had the idea to do it last November. I just had fucking insomnia one night and thought, âWhatâs the next thing we can do that is really a staple and just pushes the boundaries?â”
Harrison continued: âThis whole thing has been about fucking with people. When press donât write about us, when labels donât want us, when festivals donât take us seriously, when people donât take my generation seriously, letâs just poke the bear every time and piss everyone off to see if we can get away with it.
“Weâre a community, weâre getting bigger, weâre gonna do it anyway!”
Yungblud also talked about his âpositiveâ, Britpop-inspired upcoming album â which he compared to material by the likes of Oasis, The Verve, Primal Scream, My Chemical Romance, David Bowie and Madonna.
