Beastie Boys’ Mike D and Fat Dog announced as first Mutations Festival headliners
Thursday, October 1, 2026 - Mutations Festival, Brighton and Hove
Mike D tops the bill at Mutations Festival in the United Kingdom on 1 October 2026, bringing a catalogue rooted in Southern US hip hop to a festival setting. Known for tracks from releases like “2 The Hardway”, he appears here with Fat Dog in support. The London outfit load the line-up with alternative rock weight, spiky dance-punk and EBM undercurrents, plus an indie rock edge that contrasts with Mike D’s rap-driven approach. Together they turn this Mutations date into a collision of hip hop and high-tempo guitar music, underlining the festival’s taste for boundary-pushing bills.
