Funk and disco legend Chaka Khan is set to take the reins of Southbank Centre’s annual artist takeover Meltdown later this year, following in the footsteps of previous curators David Byrne, Grace Jones, Yoko Ono, David Bowie, and Patti Smith.
The yearly event sees a musical icon staging their own dream festival, and often playing their own special show to mark the occasion. Now, Khan has confirmed the first wave of acts that top her personalised line-up.
