Sophie Ellis-Bextor announces On The Mount at Wasing 2024 headline show

Sophie Ellis-Bextor to play her biggest headline show

Kitchen Disco diva, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, will play her biggest ever headline show on 26 June at On The Mount at Wasing 2024.

The singer’s announcement comes as her song, Murder On The Dancefloor, sits at No.2 on the UK Top 10 Singles Chart.

The tune’s resurgence in popularity comes after its memorable appearance in the closing scene of the film Saltburn starring Barry Keoghan.

Originally released as the follow-up single to Take Me Home in 2001, Murder On The Dancefloor is lifted from her debut solo studio album Read My Lips and will be re-released on limited edition 7″ vinyl and CD on 16 February.

A magical and surreal time

Ellis-Bextor celebrates this success with her biggest ever headline show at On The Mount at Wasing in Berkshire.

On her exclusive headline show, the singer said: “It’s been a magical and surreal time for me in the last couple of months, let alone the last few years! It’s going to be really special having our own massive celebration at On the Mount at Wasing, tucked away from the world in the middle of the Berkshire countryside.”

The one night only show and ultimate countryside disco party features special guests Princess Superstar and Fat Tony.

Previously announced for On The Mount at Wasing 2024 are Australian rock icons Crowded House who will kick off the shows on 17 June, London electronic duo Jungle who will perform with their explosive full live band on 27 June, and dance icons Underworld who will headline on 29 June.
