Dirty Three, Neil Finn, Clipse and The Fall head up the twentieth Meredith Music Festival.
It's an eclectic bunch, to say the least, that will ring in the second decade of Australia's most right-on music festival.Wild colonial boys Dirty Three, living pop legend Neil Finn, stark Virginian gangsta rap duo Clipse, and iconic Brit post-punks The Fall are only the beginning.
Then there's Atlanta chillwave soloist Washed Out, Melbourne retro rockers Little Red, San Fran hipster pop unit Girls, reformed Brissy smartarses Custard, and Brooklyn's soulful Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings.
Need more? How about Texan psychobilly kings Reverend Horton Heat, German minimal tech DJ Pantha Du Prince, throwback jungle bluesman C. W. Stoneking, cool Spanish psych dude El Guincho, and London dancehall masters The Heatwave.
It goes on, with Sally Seltmann, The Dead Salesmen Duo, Those Darlins, The Field, Broadcast, Jeff The Brotherhood, Hoss, Rat VS Possum, Cloud Control, Combo La Revelacion and, of course, the Ballarat Municipal Brass Band.
Amazing.
The whole shebang takes place at the Meredith Amphitheatre from December 10-12.
Tickets go on sale at a handful of stores on September 7 and online on September 9. Sign up for the ballot now at their website.
