Supersonic Festival
Supersonic Festival returns to Digbeth on April 25–26, 2026, for a special limited edition. The lineup features the premiere of Microplastics (aya, 96 back, Jennifer Walton), alongside the “Lynchian” doom-folk of ØXN, Traidora, a queer four-piece led by Eva Leblanc, the plunderphonics of Milkweed and more. This “creative hub” continues its resistance against gentrification, prioritising raw, uncompromising music and collective, joyous catharsis.
With this year’s Supersonic Sunday-lineup featuring some of KLOF’s favourites, we went along for the ride. Bridget Hayden, Jackie-O Motherf-cker, Hedgling, Six Organs of Admittance, Cinder Well, Jennifer Reid, Poor Creature, Richard Dawson, Funeral Folk and The Bug & Warrior Queen were outstanding. On the strength of these performances, Supersonic can claim to be not just the best small festival in the country, but the best of any size.
