Welsh rock music extravaganza Steelhouse Festival has announced the first 12 bands on its line-up, including two headliners.

The 14th Steelhouse Festival once again takes place up the mountain at Haford-Y-Dafal Farm in Ebbw Vale, South Wales on the weekend of Friday 25th to Sunday 27th July 2025.

Topping the bill on the Saturday night are LA metallers W.A.S.P., and it will be Blackie Lawless and co.’s only UK festival performance of the year.

The new incarnation of The Wildhearts, led by the inimitable Ginger Wildheart, have the honour of headlining on the Friday. It’s the band’s first Welsh date since their re-activation.

Ginger Wildheart enthuses: “We’re going to blow your mountain up and take some of it home to harness the hard rock power. Let’s f---ing have this”.

Elsewhere, Wolfsbane will make their inaugural appearance at Steelhouse on Friday, while rock icon Lita Ford takes the special guest slot on Saturday before W.A.S.P.

Wolfsbane said, “We’re so excited about the Steelhouse Festival. We love any excuse to do a Wolfsbane show!! It’s all our original members from the first album.

“We will be performing big hits, and a couple of new songs from our new album ‘Genius’. Jase says playing our song ‘Steel’ at Steelhouse is PERFECT! We just can’t wait.”

Representing the contemporary rock scene on the bill are Asomvel, Kit Trigg, Marisa & The Moths, Muddibrooke, Tailgunner, These Wicked Rivers, The Treatment and Scarlet Rebels.

Steelhouse head honchos Max and Mikey said: “What a way to start! If you’re looking for artists who’ve done it their way and theirs alone then we’ve got them.

“We’re delighted to have W.A.S.P. finally make their Steelhouse debut. Blackie Lawless is the definition of ‘rock star’ - trailblazer, headline maker, showman and supreme songwriter... The real deal. That show, those songs ringing out over The Mountain on Steelhouse Saturday, you’ll scream and you'll like it!”

“Then there’s Lita Ford, core member of the Runaways, solo star, a true icon and if you’re looking for a true original, then look no further than Ginger Wildheart. We’re delighted he’s re-activated The Wildhearts and the first show in the Land of our Fathers is Steelhouse. Their Friday headline show promises to be an absolute assault on the senses fired of course by Ginger-grade song power.”
