Joining the already impressive roster—including Bombay Bicycle Club, Blueboy, MONO, and Real Estate—are two groundbreaking headliners: St. Vincent and AIR.
St. Vincent, the innovative American artist renowned for her genre-defying work and electrifying guitar performances, will bring her acclaimed 2024 album All Born Screaming to the stage. Festival-goers can look forward to her performing hits like “Big Time Nothing,” “Flea,” and “Broken Man,” along with fan favorites such as “Pay Your Way in Pain,” “Digital Witness,” “Cheerleader,” and “New York.” “It’s a Joyland and personal milestone to bring St. Vincent to Joyland Festival Jakarta!” says Ferry Dermawan, Program Director of the festival. “We admire her delicate works and can’t wait to see her perform.”
AIR, the legendary French atmospheric pop duo, will celebrate the 25th anniversary of their seminal album Moon Safari. Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel will perform classics like “La femme d’argent,” “Sexy Boy,” and “Kelly Watch the Stars,” alongside other highlights from their nearly three-decade career, including “Cherry Blossom Girl” and “Electronic Performers.”
