Accelerators (Punkrock, NL)

We've seen them as the support act of Heideroosjes. They're supertight, young, and fast. For the fans: the new album is in store now!

Brat Pack (Punk, NL)

The bass player Bas played with Beans two years ago. This year, on a request from Nijmegen, we proudly present Brat Pack. Very hard, very fast, punk.

Civet (Femme Fetale Punk Rock, USA)

All-girl punk-rock band from Long Beach, California, signed at Hellcat Records. In our regard, the best all-girl band that ever set foot on the RosRock stage! They'll be touring with no less than the Dropkick Murphys a week after RosRock! Loud, sexy, and unapologetic.

The Deaf (Garage / Rock 'n' Roll / Punk, NL)

After playing with Di-rect, Spike made a new start with the Deaf. This year, they already were a great success at Paaspop Festival. An overdose of garage, punk and rock'n roll is coming your way. This time without the jumping teenage girls.

The Death Letters (Rock, NL)

After their performance on the Dutch tv show 'De Wereld Draait door' they are reaching for stardom. Two guys, 16 and 17 years old. Rock with blues and punk influences. The Datsuns, who played at RosRock 2 years ago, are one of their examples.

Gewapend Beton (Nederpunk, NL)

All 4 band members were only at the age of 13 when they started in 2003. The name, literally reinforced concrete, says it all: hard, harder, the hardest! 'Nederpunk' as these guys from Amsterdam describe their music. After this show, you'll definitely feel like you've smacked your face on concrete!

Gomer Pyle (Stonerrock / Psychedelic, NL)

Earlier this year, these 4 guys from The Hague already played at the Roadburn Festival. Established in the 90's and named after a character from an aggressive war movie. Stonerrock with spacey influences.

Heidevolk (Folkmetal, NL)

The biggest folkmetal band from Holland is honoring our festival with their ancient Gelderic songs.

Hulkk (Garagerock / Hardrock, BE)

Hulkk was Hulk and was Les Anges. Just for the record: it's Hulkk, and Hulkk means old-fashioned garagerock and the hardrock sound we're used to hear from these Belgian gentlemen. Leadsinger is Renaud Mayeur.

Knucklebone Oscar (Rock 'n' Roll, Finland)

Monkeys grinding their coconuts! The leadsinger Oscar, half human half ape, is literally jumping off the stage. But that's not all. For the ladies: we've got the guitarist! His nickname is mr. Bigtime Pussylicker! That sounds promising!

Pilgrimz (Metal / Rock 'n' Roll / Hardcore, DK)

They'll be playing loads of festivals like Waldrock and Sweden Rock this year. They're from Copenhagen, the same place as Volbeat is originated from. They weren't able to play at RosRock last year because of bad luck. We hope they'll make it up to us this year!

The Punctuals (Heavy Rock 'n' Roll, NL)

This local band has the great honor to kick off RosRock again. Only one thing: they've changed their name into The Punctuals. If they may say so themselves: loud, slightly innovating and hard!

Reno Divorce (USA)

Troy Torino (Rock, NL)

Originated from Spoiler, Celestional Season and Ofphanage. They're gonna rock your socks off and especially pay attention to the singer's moves!

Uncommonmenfrommars (Punkrock, FR)

Don't confuse them with 30 Seconds To Mars! They've had a couple of shows in Holland already; among others with The Undeclinables. Happy punk rock from France!

Zeus (Rock / Stonerrock, NL)

After a couple of years of touring, they'll play RosRock this year. The frontman Jeroen van Koningsbrugge is well known from the Dutch tv show 'Draadstaal'. We've seen them at the W2 stage. They rock as they never did before.
