Tash Sultana, Meg Mac, Marlon Williams, Odette, Sons of the East, Big Words and Hot Potato Band will all make one hell of a line up for this year’s return of the bohemian music festival, the Lost Picnic.
Straight from Melbourne’s Flemington Nursery on 7 October, it’ll make its way north to Sydney’s Domain on 13 October and will make for Tash Sultana’s first two Australian shows following the release of her highly anticipated debut album and new single Salvation.
This is her…
She’s one clever cookie and completely self-taught, which is the incredible thing.
A singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, she first made a name for herself busking on the streets of Melbourne, has created global-waves with her magical melodies and virtuosic guitar.
Her critically acclaimed EP, Notion, hit 175million streams, topped the iTunes chart in multiple countries and earned her four ARIA award nominations – no mean feat for an artist who just a couple of years ago was recording songs on a go pro in her bedroom.
Lost Picnic has been around since 2014, when it took to the Australian stage to celebrate local musical talent, food produce and give the people something different. It worked.
This year in 2018, Lost Picnic will be bigger than ever. They’re doubling-up on the amount of food on offer, bumping-up the staff numbers and making it grassier and greener than ever.
It’s the kind of set-up where you can either bring your own picnic set-up, grab a drink from the bar and enjoy some truly skilful melodies for a day on the grass.
Add on to that the likes of theatre and performance art roving throughout the Lost Picnic, there’s enough going on for everyone.
