After a first announcement overflowing with dancey goodness – the festival’s Boiler Room looks chock-a-block with the likes of Primal Scream, Booka Shade and The Bloody Beetroots – ITMers were a little confused at Big Day Out’s second lineup announcement which had little love for more electronic fare.
Thankfully it’s not a total misfire as the festival organisers have now announced a bunch of local acts to bolster the dance ranks on the summer festival tour.
Each city on the Big Day Out tour has now received an influx of new artists including one-off stops for the likes of Bass Kleph, Nina Las Vegas, T-Rek, The Touch and Anna Lunoe who’ll be doing all the Australian dates.
You can check out the full lineup additions below and if that’s not enough to satisfy your BDO thirst, head over to our All About Big Day Out page for news, sideshow deets and more juice to come.
