The highly anticipated Splendour in the Grass festival is returning to Belongil Fields in Byron Bay once again and have delivered another stellar lineup, especially on the local front. On the international front we have Janes Addiction reforming with their original lineup after disbanding for the second time in 2003 after their great Big Day Out shows which I witnessed on the Gold Coast. Last years hype band MGMT are coming back after visiting Australia in December last year which will get the kids dancing. Splendour whores Bloc Party return for their 3rd time adding their new album Intimacy to their already impressive swag of hits. The Flaming Lips will bring their quirky sounds to the festival for the first time.
The local talent on the bill is just as impressive with something for everyone. Kram will be playing without his Spiderbait bandmates who played some great sets at the festival in 2002 and 2004 and his debut album has plenty of festival friendly tunes. Bob Evans, Sarah Blasko, Augie March and Josh Pyke will bring some cruisy sounds to Byron Bay and Midnight Juggernauts, Hilltop Hoods and Grinspoon will pump up the festival crowd. Leader Cheetah have just released their excellent debut The Sunspot Letters and have recently played some well received support shows with Elbow, Dan Auerbach and The Temper Trap. All tickets will sold online at http://www.qjump.com.au/ and go on sale on Thursday 14th May at 9am. Here is the full line-up so far.
