Sound Summit Festival has announced its full lineup of some of Australia and the world’s best and brightest musicians for the 2012 event. All will be playing across a series of official showcases, scheduled from Thursday 27th – Sunday 30th September in Newcastle, NSW and alongside a yet-to-be-announced conference program.
These acts canvas a broad range of scenes, sounds and attitudes that make up Australia’s unique and diverse musical landscape. Also scheduled for the weekend are a series of panels, workshops and discussions around independent and innovative music, an official Sound Summit cinema space, and for the first time in Sound Summit’s solo history, a festival club.
