Romania’s acclaimed UNTOLD festival is back with a bang with its first line-up announcement for its 2020 event, taking place in the Cluj Arena and surrounding Central Park in Cluj-Napoca from 30 July - 2 August. The 9 stage-festival is one of Europe’s most incredible gatherings of electronic music and celebrates its 6th run this summer.  Dance titans Martin Garrix and David Guetta lead the charge with two showstopping DJ sets. The duo have collaborated previously on formidable tracks such as ‘Like I Do’ and ‘So Far Away’.

One of the most legendary girl groups ever will make their UNTOLD debut, The Pussycat Dolls will definitely be one of the highlights on the 2020 line-up. Also set to debut in Cluj-Napoca is the formidable rapper Iggy Azalea, known for chart-topping tracks such as ‘Fancy’ and ‘Black Widow’. The ever popular Irish band The Script will treat their fans on a show they will never forget, bringing their slew of Platinum-selling hits with them.   The underground is heavily represented on this first announcement too. Trance fans will be pleased to hear of the inclusion of Above & Beyond. The new school of Belgian techno is represented by the fierce sounds of Charlotte de Witte and Amelie Lens. Paul Kalkbrenner, Richie Hawtin and Tale Of Us showing why they’re at the top of their game. There’s plenty for bass-fiends too, with Dub FX bringing those heavy, frenetic low-end vibes and Wilkinson bringing his euphoric drum & bass sounds.    Over 375,000 people attended last year’s UNTOLD,  and the festival has already sold an incredible 30,000 tickets without announcing a single name.

The most iconic club in all of the world today says #WelcomeHome as it unveils a suitably awe-inspiring opening party that on May 9th with Jamie Jones, The Black Madonna, Adam Beyer, Anna, Marco Faraone, Michael Bibi, Cuartero Mar-T B2B CAAL, Sidney Charles B2B Seb Zito, Luca Donzelli, Les Schmitz, John Woods and Carolina Fe opening what is set to be a spectacular summer season in 2020. Amnesia is truly home for electronic music lovers from all over the world, for people who come together and celebrate the best DJs and live acts in the game. This huge opening is an annual time for great celebration and always offers production thought through to the last detail, incredible lighting effects and the most advanced sound system in the world on the famous Terrace which boasts the kv2 Audio. This year it's headlined by returning favourites, Paradise hero Jamie Jones, deep digging American selector The Black Madonna, techno mainstays Adam Beyer and Marco Faraone, Brazilian leader Anna, edgy tech champ Michael Bibi, much-loved Spanish legends Cuartero, Mar-T & CAAL go back-to-back and another special back-to-back between Sidney Charles & Seb Zito, Moon Harbour and Origins Rcds associate, Luca Donzelli, as well as Amnesia residents, Les Schmitz, John Woods and Carolina Fe. Once that opening has set a high standard for the season ahead, the weekly parties will keep the vibes alive all summer long. First up, the now world-renowned Pyramid has made a huge splash in just a couple of years with standout names like Nina Kraviz and Ricardo Villalobos playing in the past. Each week, the iconic club is turned into an immersive adult playground with a world class soundtrack and so expect more next level experiences in 2020. This season, it runs each Sunday from June 7 - Sept 27 with a wealth of international names headlining each week.   Saturdays will be all about Elrow, undoubtedly the most colourful, spectacular and fantastically outlandish party in the world. The world famous production is beyond belief, the atmospheres are always crazy and the sound track comes from contemporary DJs who really know how to pack a dance floor. It runs weekly from May 23 – Sept 26 and will be the one and only place to be for those who like to be submerged in imaginary party worlds.  Together is back to retain its crown as one of the most eclectic and immersive nights in the White Isle on Mondays from June 1 - June 29, then from Sept 7 – Oct 5. For 10 whole years now, this party has been bringing festival-sized line-ups to Amnesia each and every week and to celebrate all that they will be hosting 10 special events under the 10 x 10 banner with legendary residents Chase & Status returning once more. Will and Saul will be bringing with them a horde of hand-picked special guests, world exclusive debuts and first time, one-off B2Bs on their most ambitious season yet, showcasing the best from their latest RTRN II JUNGLE project, alongside all new music to road test for those lucky to bear witness. The lights, lasers, ice cannons and visuals are off the chart each and every time and the very best of bass music is showcased with drum & bass, urban, house, grime, techno and more all covered.   As well as this huge opening party and the weekly residencies, there will be a unique series of six spectacular parties from Do Not Sleep - dates to be announced soon - plus a very special guest with her own Friday night party, and plenty of live shows that will transform the world renowned Ibiza Terrace into something you have never witnessed before.  Already, this is shaping up to be the most complete and comprehensive season in Amnesia's long and storied history.  #WelcomeHome #AmnesiaIbiza #Amnesia2020 #Ibiza2020 #theoriginal  OPENING PARTY May 9th LA TERRAZA JAMIE JONES THE BLACK MADONNA MICHAEL BIBI CUARTERO MAR-T B2B CAAL SIDNEY CHARLES B2B SEB ZITO MAIN ROOM  ADAM BEYER ANNA MARCO FARAONE LUCA DONZELLI LES SCHMITZ TOGETHER TUESDAYS June 1 - June 29 Sept 7 – to Oct 5 ELROW SATURDAYS May 23 – Sept 26 PYRAMID SUNDAYS June 7 - September 27  Amnesia Opening Party Facebook Event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/456579308610970/  Tickets / further information: https://tickets.amnesia.es/en/ticket/642

From Friday 28th to Monday 31st August 2020 Moovin Festival promises to be another explosion of sound and colour, a sensory overload packed with outrageously good world-class music, organic and immersive stage designs and decor, delicious food, mesmerising fire shows; a festival full of surprises and so much more. Across this whimsical weekend, Moovin Festival invites you with open arms and a big smile into a natural wonderland that comes alive with musical mischief, grown up fun, free spirited good times and a world of colourful characters, non stop laughs, performances and soul soothing wellness activities that play out like a cult movie featuring you as the lead star.  The festival this year is bigger and better than ever, while maintaining its bespoke and bijou feel the organisers keep the capacity strictly limited capacity as they feel this is a big piece of what makes this gathering so special . Moovin Festival somehow have a knack of attracting big acts to showcase in a much more personal setting than you would expect. The first headliners to be revealed are superstars from across the musical spectrum including Arrested Development, Basement Jaxx, KRS One, David Rodigan, Todd Terje, Mr Scruff, Eek A Mouse, Derrick Carter, Craig Charles, Beardyman, Plump DJs, Asian Dub Foundation and many more.  Moovin Festival is a close-knit and tasteful gathering of real music lovers that offers something different from the norm. The whole festival is loving crafted and curated with a real attention to detail that is made extra special by the free spirited vibe and fun-loving crowd who attend each year. The unique and escapist location is the eco-friendly Whitebottom farm in the stunning countryside in Compstall, not far from Manchester. The walk to the site itself is a magical experience, through Etherow Country Park, full of lush greenery, lakes and birds leading to a breathtaking natural gorge at the entrance to the festival site itself.  This natural wonderland then comes alive with pounding baselines, and eclectic musical mixes, walkabout performers and immersive performances, fire shows and hoopers, gong baths galore, workshops and yoga classes. What's more, despite the world class headliners, Moovin is all about offering personal and intimate vibes that are fully independent. The lineup is stacked with quirky bands, fresh, up and coming acts, local talents, curious distractions, mouthwatering food offerings and plenty more surprises that make for non-stop adventure and exploration across the weekend.  Amongst this years headliners are none other than world renowned dance music icons Basement Jaxx, who have been behind too many chart topping hits to mention and always bring a dazzling mix of dance sounds informed by many years at the top of their game. Hip hop lovers are in for a treat when American legends and Grammy award winers Arrested Development and New Yorks finest KRS One take to the stage bringing crisp, booming rap beats as well as conscious and empowering lyrics, while junglists will surely be happy with the combination of old school heavyweights Mickey Finn, Aphrodite, Randall and DJ SS.  Eek A Mouse, David Rodigan, Price Fatty & Horseman head up the reggae authority who will bring the finest riddims, and Mr Scruff has one of the most treasured vinyl collections in the country with everything from soul to funk, downtempo to house. Anyone who has seen Beardyman perform live will know what a spectacle it is as the beatboxer mixes up all genres with his vocal cords and gets any crowd moovin.

Toi.Toi.Musik events have been taking place since June 2010, focused on quality over quantity, with lineups, sound and venues that create a unique atmosphere for like-minded people to come together. To celebrate the impressive landmark achievement of ten years running events, Toi.Toi.Musik has announced the first wave of their anticipated parties for 2020, running up to June.  Originally with events aimed at the warehouse, Toi.Toi. then moved to different locations including Fabric and The Hoxton Basement art gallery, which became their cherished home in London, before taking the brand across the world to the likes of BCN OFF Sonar, Tokyo, Berlin and New York City. Capturing the essence of this ten-year history, the tour is set to take place initially across six dates at some of the most select European venues.   Not content with events alone, Toi.Toi.Musik, led by its founder Isis Salvaterra, took things even further by creating a community of artists signed to the Toi.Toi. agency and record label. One thing these artists all have in common is their originality and passion, fundamentally aligning with the Toi.Toi. values. The ten-year tour features some of these close friends and talented artists gracing the lineups.   The tour commences at the heart of Romania’s underground, Club Guesthouse, on Friday 21 February featuring Alex Troubeztkoy, Vincent Lemieux, Dubtil b2b Dan Andrei and Sammy Dee. Followed directly by another Romanian party on Saturday 22 February at the cultural hub of Visssual in Brasov with Brad, Alex Troubeztkoy, Dan Andrei and Sammy Dee. Moving across Europe, Toi.Toi. is set to join forces with the Anexo brand, with a yet to be released lineup on Saturday 28 March at a Lisbon Warehouse. Then Toi.Toi. return to London where it all began on Easter Bank Holiday Sunday 12 April, this time at FOLD. Featuring at the 24-hour Canning Town venue will be Rhadoo, Vlada, Edward, Dubtil and Junki Inoue, before rolling into an intimate after-hours at pub venue The Lion & Lamb. Friday 19 June concludes the first half of the tour with the ten-year birthday party taking place during none other than BCN OFF week, where Toi.Toi. held their first-ever European venture in 2011. Expect a remarkable lineup of special guests and label affiliates to mark the occasion. The remaining TBA lineups are set to be revealed soon, followed by the second series of events to take place in the latter half of 2020.

Vancouver, Canada, February 19th, 2020 – Canadian country artist Lisa Nicole is proud to share her newest single and music video “Wait on Me”, which is newly available on all digital platforms and was released to Canadian radio on February 10th. “Wait on Me” – written in Nashville by Lisa Nicole, Jason Thomas, and Dave Pahanish – is the debut single from her 2020 fall album, Where the Wild Hearts Beat, and her first collaboration with CCMA award-winning producer Jeff Johnson. Cliff Hokanson directed the accompanying music video, which was released on February 5th.  This is the first single for the Canadian singer – originally from Castlegar, British Columbia – since she moved to Nashville for the spring and summer of 2018 to add fuel to her creative fire.   Lisa Nicole says, “There are moments in life that test the balance of our commitment between professional goals and personal relationships. While there is great pressure to choose one over the other, I don’t believe it has to be that way. Your heart can want – and have – both. ‘Wait on Me’ is about making the bold choice to follow through on your dreams, but also build a future with someone you love anywhere and anytime – regardless of obstacles.”  The move to Music City connected Lisa Nicole and her longtime guitar player Thomas with Nashville hitmaker Pahanish (Keith Urban, Toby Keith). Her long-distance relationship with a Canadian partner back home proved to be the catalyst that inspired the trio to pen “Wait on Me”. The choice to uproot from the Kootenays to Nashville was greatly inspired by a transformative and serendipitous 2017 moment for Lisa Nicole – winner of the 2015 Music BC/BC Country Music Association Artist Development Project – when she visited Nashville for a songwriting trip. Encouraged to see a pop-up concert by Keith Urban, she arrived with her 2016 EP in hand, only to end up on stage by night’s end to sing an impromptu duet of “We Were Us” with the superstar.     Following her extended stay in Nashville in 2018, Lisa Nicole returned to Canada with heaps of inspiration and a wealth of new material. Since then, she has joined forces with producer Jeff Johnson (Meghan Patrick, Chris Buck Band) to record her first full-length album, Where the Wild Hearts Beat – boasting a commercial country sound with an infusion of rock and pop. “Wait on Me” is the first gift from this collaboration. The album will drop this fall. “Wait on Me” is available on all digital platforms. Lisa Nicole will support “Wait on Me” with a Canadian radio and media tour along with select shows.

“It’s a bit like King Gizz meets The Beach Boys” Declan Byrne – triple j Home & Hosed

A breezy, blissful bop plucked right out of the 60s, Melbourne’s Teenage Dads today release the giddy inducing ‘Adrenaline Rush’ which premiered via Home & Hosed on triple j last night.

Self-made, self managed and incredibly fun live, Teenage Dads have whipped up two EPs and a debut album full of rich, reminiscent melodies over the last two years. Their newest creates a sweet – almost hypnotic – soundscape, packed with charming vocals, honky-tonk piano and groovy basslines,

Exploring a dreamy tale of finding love, vocalist Jordan Finlay explains “Adrenaline Rush is about the head over heels feeling you might get for someone, and how it can feel like something from a dream and completely change an identity“

Teenage Dads’ kinetic energy and righteous live shows have propelled the band who recently toured nationally with Lime Cordiale and performed alongside Montaigne, Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, Ruby Fields and Northeast Party House. Arriving fresh from an appearance at St Kilda Festival and NYE on the Hill Teenage Dads soon join forces with The Moving Stills for a huge regional headline jaunt announced earlier this week. Tickets for ‘The Antics Roadshow’ featuring Teenage Dads and The Moving Stills are on sale now and Teenage Dads’ single ‘Adrenaline Rush‘ is out NOW.

Commenting on the announcement, Head of Touring at Bluesfest, Kimberley Galceran said “Every year our headliners select their support artist from a shortlist of some of the best emerging talent, contemporary favourites and legends in their own right. It’s a pleasure watching the list of supports come together, they add to the richness, diversity and flavour of our sideshows. I often hear people exclaiming “how good was the support act!?” to a stranger during intermission and it gives me a smile. There’s an act in here you haven’t heard yet, that you’ll be playing for years to come, give them a listen.” A strong obsession with space and novels helps inspire the concepts and writing within BATTS music. Creating a blend of folk and rock, whilst weaving in samples collected from space mission’s courtesy of NASA, throughout her music. Catch her perform with Eagles of Death Metal in Croxton Bandroom on April 18. Yorta Yorta singer/songwriter Benny Walker is the real deal. He's got the lot; the voice, the songs, the showmanship and the looks to kill. His love songs and epic tales are mixed with passion for people, the land, summer vibes and deep grooves that reach the soul. Catch this Bluesfest favourite performing with Larkin Poe in the Corner Hotel Melbourne on 16 April. If you haven’t seen Bobby Alu live before he’ll be sure to entertain you with smooth harmonies, rhythms inspired by a strong family lineage of Polynesian performance, and unassuming grooves that work a gradual, smile inducing high through even a casual listener. Bobby Alu is supporting The Wailers on their national tour this April. Born into a household filled with vinyl, CDs and tapes of blues, soul, gospel, jazz, big band and rock & roll, Caiti Baker’s father - a blues musician himself, made sure that she was raised amongst music.

Catherine is supporting John Mayall in New Zealand this April. Clayton Bones Harvey has been a long-time student of the Greats of the Delta and Country Blues genre. His vast repertoire of acoustic styled Rural Blues goes from Son House to Robert Johnson to Mississippi Fred McDowell just to name a few. Catch Clayton supporting John Mayall in Cairns this April.

Weaving together intense guitar and soulful vocals, Jesse Valach takes you on a journey from lights down low soul ballads to energetic shuffle romps delivered in demanding fashion. Catch Jess supporting The Marcus King Band in Melbourne on April 15. Australian 'Progressive Folk and Roots' artist Jordan Mac has fast become known for his dynamic vocals and virtuosic ability on the twelve-string guitar while laying Middle Eastern and Celtic infused riffs over electronic beats, drums and Latin percussion. Jordan Mac will be on the road this April supporting The Gipsy Kings on their national tour. Inspired by a wide-ranging collection of genres, the LamBros. music expands over blues, rock, soul, funk, folk and singer-songwriter, and blends together styles through their unique use of sounds such as the didgeridoo, raw vocals, and a thumping home-made hybrid drum-kit. Fast after their Bluesfest performance they will be hitting the road to support The Marcus King Band and Larkin Poe in Sydney. With multiple nominations in the Independent Music Awards, International Songwriting Competition, Independent Blues Awards and all albums hitting #1s on the blues radio charts in the USA, Australia and top 40s in Europe, the spotlight is starting to shine on one of the most talented blues-rock-guitarist-artists. Matty T Wall is supporting Walter Trout in Sydney and Melbourne this April.

Drawing from her Polynesian heritage and original artistry as a drummer and dancer, Lucinda Anderson as Sister Liberty weaves a mix of soulful reggae, funk and folk with world music flavours. She supports Buffy Sainte-Marie in Cairns this April. Solomon Cole's sound evokes the wordy dark tales of Tom Waits, and marries it to the blues effigies of Son House, R L Burnside, or Howlin’ Wolf in spirit, and wraps it all up in a little rock’n’roll package like some Black Keys/voodoo inspired Mardi Gras for the lonesome and downtrodden. Solumon supports The Marcus King Band in Auckland this April. Since topping the charts on Triple J’s Unearthed for the seventh time, The Lyrical has become THE rising star of the music scene on the Sunshine Coast. Following in the footsteps of Ben Harper, Bob Marley, Michael Franti and Xavier Rudd, The Lyrical reflects the ingenuity and musical aptitude it takes to be a great artist. The Lyrical join Bobby Alu and The Wailers in the The Triffid on April 13. Genre-defying Wanderers have a trademark symphony of moods - the shredding of guitar riffs, dreamy harmonies, funky bass and a general feeling of nostalgia. They crank out rock tinged numbers that build into raunchy, soulful jams. Wanderers support Cory Henry & the Funk Apostles in Melbourne and Sydney this April. WILSN is a force to be reckoned with on stage, captivating audiences with her vocal prowess. With each commanding performance, her authentic brand of soul-influenced pop comes to life. She supports Morcheeba in Melbourne and Tori Kelly on both Sydney and Melbourne shows.

We’re proud to present some of the best local, rising talent for your listening pleasure across Australia and New Zealand this April. With some familiar favourites being added to join our headliners there’s some in there who will soon become your favourites and just might steal the show!

Commenting on the announcement, Head of Touring at Bluesfest, Kimberley Galceran said “Every year our headliners select their support artist from a shortlist of some of the best emerging talent, contemporary favourites and legends in their own right. It’s a pleasure watching the list of supports come together, they add to the richness, diversity and flavour of our sideshows. I often hear people exclaiming “how good was the support act!?” to a stranger during intermission and it gives me a smile. There’s an act in here you haven’t heard yet, that you’ll be playing for years to come, give them a listen.”

A strong obsession with space and novels helps inspire the concepts and writing within BATTS music. Creating a blend of folk and rock, whilst weaving in samples collected from space mission’s courtesy of NASA, throughout her music. Catch her perform with Eagles of Death Metal in Croxton Bandroom on April 18.

Yorta Yorta singer/songwriter Benny Walker is the real deal. He’s got the lot; the voice, the songs, the showmanship and the looks to kill. His love songs and epic tales are mixed with passion for people, the land, summer vibes and deep grooves that reach the soul. Catch this Bluesfest favourite performing with Larkin Poe in the Corner Hotel Melbourne on 16 April.

If you haven’t seen Bobby Alu live before he’ll be sure to entertain you with smooth harmonies, rhythms inspired by a strong family lineage of Polynesian performance, and unassuming grooves that work a gradual, smile inducing high through even a casual listener. Bobby Alu is supporting The Wailers on their national tour this April.

Born into a household filled with vinyl, CDs and tapes of blues, soul, gospel, jazz, big band and rock & roll, Caiti Baker’s father – a blues musician himself, made sure that she was raised amongst music. She is supporting George Benson on what will be a sell out tour this April.

A genre defying songstress of blues, soul, and country rock – Catherine Tunks is redefining what NZ has to come to know as the blues, soul & country genre, with her rock n roll edge stemming from her thoroughbred west Auckland roots. Catherine is supporting John Mayall in New Zealand this April.

Mashed with sweat, swagger, and guitars; The Delta Riggs recently announced their signing to the renowned X-Ray Touring roster, where they will join the likes of Coldplay and Eminem. Delta Riggs support Eagles of Death Metal in Sydney and Melbourne (19 April) this April.

DRMNGNOW is independent Artist based in Naarm/Birraranga Neil Morris.

DRMNGNOW is supporting Buffy Sainte-Marie in Melbourne on April 9.

With a love for looping electronic beats, bass, synths and vocal chops – Georgi Kay is a British-Australian artist who has received multiple awards for her original work, songwriting and collaborations. She has toured with the likes of Ed Sheeran and Tash Sultana. Georgi Kay supports LP in Sydney and Melbourne this April.

GORO is the combined force of respected Australian Hip Hop producers Caustic Yoda & Waza. Their sound blends improvisation with structure, mashing up live instruments, records & synths, with nods to early DJ Shadow, DJ Krush and J Dilla. Goro supports Morcheeba in Sydney on April 9.

Weaving together intense guitar and soulful vocals, Jesse Valach takes you on a journey from lights down low soul ballads to energetic shuffle romps delivered in demanding fashion. Catch Jess supporting The Marcus King Band in Melbourne on April 15.

Australian ‘Progressive Folk and Roots’ artist Jordan Mac has fast become known for his dynamic vocals and virtuosic ability on the twelve-string guitar while laying Middle Eastern and Celtic infused riffs over electronic beats, drums and Latin percussion. Jordan Mac will be on the road this April supporting The Gipsy Kings on their national tour.

Inspired by a wide-ranging collection of genres, the LamBros. music expands over blues, rock, soul, funk, folk and singer-songwriter, and blends together styles through their unique use of sounds such as the didgeridoo, raw vocals, and a thumping home-made hybrid drum-kit. Fast after their Bluesfest performance they will be hitting the road to support The Marcus King Band and Larkin Poe in Sydney.

With multiple nominations in the Independent Music Awards, International Songwriting Competition, Independent Blues Awards and all albums hitting #1s on the blues radio charts in the USA, Australia and top 40s in Europe, the spotlight is starting to shine on one of the most talented blues-rock-guitarist-artists. Matty T Wall is supporting Walter Trout in Sydney and Melbourne this April.

Reb Foundation won the Tui for Best Country Album/Artist 2018 for her EP Hopeful & Hopeless, APRA Best Country Song 2018 for the title track ‘Hopeful & Hopeless’ and her album Little Arrows was nominated for Best Folk Album of 2018. A pre-eminent singer and performer, Reb has for years been the musicians’ secret. Red Foundation supports Brandi Carlile in Auckland on April 12.

Drawing from her Polynesian heritage and original artistry as a drummer and dancer, Lucinda Anderson as Sister Liberty weaves a mix of soulful reggae, funk and folk with world music flavours. She supports Buffy Sainte-Marie in Cairns this April.

Solomon Cole‘s sound evokes the wordy dark tales of Tom Waits, and marries it to the blues effigies of Son House, R L Burnside, or Howlin’ Wolf in spirit, and wraps it all up in a little rock’n’roll package like some Black Keys/voodoo inspired Mardi Gras for the lonesome and downtrodden. Solumon supports The Marcus King Band in Auckland this April.

Since topping the charts on Triple J’s Unearthed for the seventh time, The Lyrical has become THE rising star of the music scene on the Sunshine Coast. Following in the footsteps of Ben Harper, Bob Marley, Michael Franti and Xavier Rudd, The Lyrical reflects the ingenuity and musical aptitude it takes to be a great artist. The Lyrical join Bobby Alu and The Wailers in the The Triffid on April 13.

Genre-defying Wanderers have a trademark symphony of moods – the shredding of guitar riffs, dreamy harmonies, funky bass and a general feeling of nostalgia. They crank out rock tinged numbers that build into raunchy, soulful jams. Wanderers support Cory Henry & the Funk Apostles in Melbourne and Sydney this April.

WILSN is a force to be reckoned with on stage, captivating audiences with her vocal prowess. With each commanding performance, her authentic brand of soul-influenced pop comes to life. She supports Morcheeba in Melbourne and Tori Kelly on both Sydney and Melbourne shows.

Since the age of 19, Daniel Wayne Spencer has been touring, writing and recording with Richard Clapton, Jimmy Barnes, Jon Stevens, Leo Sayer, Rogue Traders, Doc Neeson, Joe Camilleri and Martha Davies. With influences ranging from blues guitar legends Ry Cooder and Buddy Guy to Jackson Browne and Ryan Adams, his own music is a blend of blues, rock and country. Daniel Wayne Spencer is supporting Tal Wilkenfeld on her Australian tour.

With a baritone that is resonant and expressive, Fenn Wilson’s songwriting forms a snapshot of his recent past; brushes with heartache, depression, world-weariness and uncertainty, and often lightened with compassionate observation, love and redemption. Think George Ezra with Nick Cave’s early song book. Think George Ezra with Nick Cave’s early songbook. Catch Fenn in Melbourne supporting The War & Treaty this April.

She might not be local, but she does deserve special mention. A contemporary twist on a traditional sonic tapestry. YOLA‘s debut album ‘Walk Through Fire’ saw her nominated for four Grammys. She has ‘next big thing’ written all over her. Yola supports Brandi Carlile on her debut Australian tour this April.

The full Australian tour dates of Serbia's most prominent DJ  Tijana T
Festival NewsMusic News

The full Australian tour dates of Serbia’s most prominent DJ Tijana T

by the partae February 19, 2020
written by the partae

 

Tour Dates

Friday 6th March: Pitch Music & Arts, Moyston
Friday 13th March: Universal, Sydney
Sunday 15th March: The Black Madonna pres. We Still Believe
@ The Timber Yard, Melbourne

For more than a decade now Tijana T has been a key figure in her native Serbian dance scene. She has gained much respect and recognition for her monthly all-night long marathon sets at the legendary Belgrade spot 20/4. Now she is an international name who has headlined Boiler Room and many seminal clubs including Berlin’s Panorama Bar and Tresor and We Love…Space in Ibiza. Festivals like Dimensions, Hideout, Flow and Exit, are just some of the internationally renowned brands. Far from being just a DJ, Tijana T is also a talented vocalist who has provided vocals to artists including Abe Duque and techno star Marc Houle. She returns to Australia as one of the more requested Pitch Music & Arts acts, alongside being the official guest at The Black Madonna’s We Still Believe event in Melbourne.

For close to 20 years, Tijana T has been a key part of Serbia’s music scene. Now a full time DJ, Tijana T is overtaking on the inside fast lane to global stardom. Her mastery of an acid-dominant techno style with elements of breakbeat, house, electro and synth-rock has turned ears all across the globe. This lethal dancefloor style has propelled her to become one of the busiest and most durable DJs on the tour circuit. Over 300 shows in over 40 countries in six continents since the start of 2016 tells its own story. Spinning coldwave at dawn in Antarctica? Surely not far off.

Unlike other breakthroughs in the game, Tijana T has put in the hard hours. As this burst of recent activity shows, she was completely ready to make the leap and break out of Belgrade when the time came. Now, she does it all. Whether opening or closing, on Ibizan terraces or in smokey basements, soundtracking the sunrise for a few hundred or headlining festival stages to tens of thousands, the details are immaterial. What happens when she plays is empathy with the audience, selecting music to expand their hunger, as well as satisfy their pleasure-centre core. This is why everyone from Berghain to The Bunker NYC, and Beats In Space to Boiler Room have called upon Tijana T lately. On top of that, global titans Dystopian, Afterlife and EXIT Festival have welcomed her into their family of A-tier residents.

Belgrade is where the artist born Tijana Todorovic first made her name, moving from heavy presence on local TV and radio to marathon slots across town, specifically the world-renowned Drugstore and Klub 20/44. Now the tables have turned: in the late 2010s, she is making Belgrade’s name. Tijana T has become a global ambassador for the city, tirelessly exporting its culture. As her reputation has travelled, so has she. Negative preconceptions about Serbia are falling, replaced by the squelch of a 303, a touch of class behind the booth, and more and more people admiring this fiercely determined talent.

ARCHIE ROACH ANNOUNCES AUSTRALIAN TOUR TELL ME WHY - THE FINAL ROUND 1990-2020 In his final national tour ever, legendary songwriter, “voice of the Stolen Generations” and 2020 Victorian Australian of the Year Archie Roach AM will take his brilliantly reviewed Tell Me Why show to capital cities May through September. This spectacular live concert will celebrate Roach’s eponymous memoir and companion album. Audiences will hear seminal songs from his back catalogue alongside influential music from his youth and three new autobiographical songs written since completing his memoir. With well documented health challenges, including a stroke and lung cancer, Archie Roach is by most measures not a well man, but once he takes to the stage a certain majesty takes over and the stories and the songs are as compelling as the voice that sings them. “Some songwriters wrap themselves in cloaks, whether of enigma or inanity, and some bare their souls. Then there's Archie Roach.” - Sydney Morning Herald (Jan 2020) Roach will be joined onstage by his five-piece band, including award-winning jazz composer and improviser Paul Grabowsky, and special guest vocalist Emma Donovan. For Archie announcing this as his last national tour has not been an easy decision to make. “Releasing my debut album, Charcoal Lane back in 1990, was the most amazing experience in my life. I never imagined that I would be here three decades later still recording and singing on stages in Australia and the world. Music has kept me going, kept me alive. It’s something that I have come to love, especially the relationship I have with those who come to my shows. I am also most grateful to all the people that I have worked with through the years.” Thirty years after the release of Roach’s two-time ARIA Award-winning debut album Charcoal Lane (1990), Tell Me Why is a compelling account of resilience, strength of spirit, and great love. Through stories of the iconic songwriter and activist’s life, this is an intimate, moving and often confronting musical journey as Roach searches for a deep sense of belonging. The much lauded Tell Me Why memoir and companion album have shown how inseparable are his life and his songs, with the first single from the album ‘Open Up Your Eyes’ already shortlisted for the prestigious 2020 APRA Song of the Year, the largest peer-voted music award in Australia. From a stolen child and teenage alcoholic to seeker, lover (with his life partner the late Ruby Hunter), father, musical icon, social advocate and First Nations leader, not many have lived a life as compelling as Archie Roach. “This is a phenomenal work by one of the most articulate and recognisable members of the Stolen Generation. It will be read, studied and discussed for many years to come.” - Weekend Australian “This powerful memoir is a generous gift to the whole of Australia. A captivating unputdownable story.” - Herald-Sun It has been 12 years since then-Prime Minister Kevin Rudd delivered the Australian Government’s National Apology to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Roach’s story shows how his extraordinary odyssey through love and heartbreak, family and community, survival and renewal is a testament to the healing power of music. Roach has also received a Human Rights Achievement Award for his iconic Stolen Generations song, ‘Took the Children Away’; a first for any songwriter.

Joining previously announced festival headliners Angie McMahon and Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever will be beloved 80s channeling Italo-disco heavyweight Donny Benét, dynamic alt-country outfit Caitlin Harnett & The Pony Boys, newfangled rock supergroup Mr. Teenage, and euphonious wordsmith POOKIE, as well as exploratory indie outfit Snowy Band and regular Meadow frequenters The Attics.

Nestled amongst the mighty Otway gums, Meadow takes place in the regional Victorian town of Bambra for three days and two nights of non-stop audio-visual stimuli. The tasty lineup is coupled by an even more mouth-watering spread of local produce and regionally focussed sips, with craft beers from Salt Brewing, gin from Great Ocean Road Gin, plus hand-picked cool climate wines from neighbouring Otway Hinterlands vineyards including acclaimed newcomer, Heroes. Select food stalls will boast some of the best bites of the region, operated by local restaurants and businesses such as Sticks And Bones BBQ (Geelong), Pete’s Woodfired Pizzas (Aireys Inlet), Tin Can Alley Café (Lorne) plus more still to be announced.

The final release tickets now moving fast with just over five weeks to go.
Don’t sleep on it.
