BIGSOUND has named the first 50 artists for the 2015 live program and for another year, Brisbane looks to become a buzzing hive of excellent live music in September! BIGSOUND Live sees 14 music venues through the Valley taken over by some impressive line ups of bands from around Australia and abroad over two nights for what has become Australia's biggest gathering of industry and music fans. Last year's BIGSOUND program was hectic, showcasing some diverse and brilliant talent - both emerging and established - and this year is going to be no different.
For some of these artists, BIGSOUND is another stellar opportunity to show off their sounds after having taken to similar environments overseas in the last year or two, at events including SXSW, Glastonbury and The Great Escape. Featured in the first line up of artists are bands from around the country and abroad, including Gang of Youths, Yukon Blonde, Katy Steele, Timberwolf and Holy Holy.
BIGSOUND Live (September 9th & 10th) tickets are on sale from Monday, June 22nd for just $75 for both nights, or $45 a single ticket. Taking a look at the names below and anticipating further artist announcements still to be made, there's some excellent value in the ticket prices for sure.
