It's a band which dropped out of Truck festival but they're not really political and people are confused.

Are we supposed to know what the Truck Festival is, and why is them dropping out political? You're going to need to explain a lot more.

They are withdrawing from Truck festival because hedge fund KKR took stake in its ownership.

The KKR hedge fund heavily invests in Israeli weapons. Thus they are on the the boycott list.

Musicians from the festival cancelled their concert in solidarity.

People expected the musicians to have music with a political message, but they did not because non-political bands are doing BDS now. Hence the title.
