Dirty Three Kicks Off Twentieth Meredith

By Andrew Tijs
Mon, 09 Aug 2010 05:51:27 +1000

Meredith has announced their first act, Victorian legends The Dirty Three.

We noted that Meredith is sure to be a humdinger this year, with a celebration of 20 years of Australia's finest festival.

And to begin, a band that has helped define the ramshackle aesthetic of the fest: the Dirty Three.

Obviously, this isn't the first time that world-renowned trio - Warren Ellis, Mick Turner and Jim White - have visited the usually-sleepy ampitheatre.

They played at the 1994, 1997 and 2004 festivals, turning themselves into legends along the way.

To refresh your memory of their stormy sets, head over to Meredith's amazing online retrospective exhibition at Twenty MMF.

Start getting excited, Meredith 2010 will be big. The ballot is open. The action happens from December 10 to 12.
