When you’ve got a festival as big and diverse as Rock Werchter, it can be easy to get lost in and among all the madness as you try to worm your way through the Belgian chaos. That’s why it’s vital to come prepared on all fronts, from your camping gear to the things you don’t want to miss. And boy does that sound much easier on paper than it does when you’re actually there. Rock Werchter’s line-up is generally one of Europe’s strongest year upon year, and while the big names are always BIG, the small names often slip under the radar. We’ve done a deep dive into Werchter’s poster and picked six small(er) names who you definitely should not miss next month. As always, we’re doing this the simple way: one key song, nothing more, nothing less. Happy discovering!
