Exploding onto the music scene in 2006 with their third album ‘Standing In The Way Of Control’, Arkansas trio Gossip have risen to achieve international mainstream success. Their strident, catchy punk is delivered with conviction and style by the formidable force of frontwoman Beth Ditto, who has emerged as a controversial although celebrated figure, battling prejudices against weight, gender and homosexuality. 

Gossip’s live shows are incendiary performances set alight by Ditto’s unashamed, no-holds barred feminism and megaphonic vocals – their headline set on Sunday night at Latitude will be no different.buy
