2020 Grampians festival line-up

-

The curtain has lifted on the 2020 artist line-up for a revamped Grampians Music Festival, with Julia Jacklin to lead the charge in a brand new decade of festivitie­s.

The annual Halls Gap event is returning for its fourth year on February 28 and 29 from midday to 11.30pm each day.

Director Carly Flecknoe said the new and improved festival boasted a musical line-up that was ‘easily’ the biggest year yet for the festival.

“I’m very proud of this line-up and what it says about the Grampians Music Festival,” she said.

“We are blessed to have this much talent on our bill. Julia Jacklin has hit her straps both here and overseas, and her from-the-heart song writing style is pure magic.

“Alongside Ecca Vandal and These New South Whales rounding out the top of the bill is a blend of an incredible mix of artists who are making waves in Australia at the moment. It’s going to make for a very special weekend.”

Ms Flecknoe said the festival had always celebrated homegrown talent in a nurturing and family-friendly atmosphere.

She said all the artists were examples of the Australian music community who were ‘killing it in their own lanes’.

Also taking to the stage are Drmngnow, Maddy Jane, Elizabeth, Clypso, Raave Tapes, Zoe Fox and The Rocket Clocks, Yergurl, Miiesha, Feels, Pink Matter, Quivers, Pinch Points, Gauci, The Buoys, Sledgehamm­er and Gamjee.

Ms Flecknoe said a family dance party would also feature DJ Relaxative, with Ghostchip DJS jumping on board for the festival’s Sunday Funday Pool Party.

Following on from the two-day event will be returning ‘Emerging Artist’ stages at locations throughout Halls Gap, providing regional artists opportunit­y to perform and showcase their talents to festival goers and residents alike.
