This week after much anticipation, gossip, unfounded rumours and hopeful predictions, the line-up we’ve all been hanging out for was announced. Friction & Lexington Music will once again deliver a superb line-up for the Foreshore Summer Music Festival to be held right here in Canberra on 29 November. After getting down and dirty in the mud at Commonwealth Place last December this year the festival sees an expanded multi-stage format to bring in summer.

To our absolute delight, after a two year hiatus from the capital, Foreshore will see the return of Australia’s hottest indie dance act The Presets to Canberra. And we can barely wait.

Here’s the line-up so far with the promise from the festival organisers that ‘this is just the beginning, many more international and national acts to be announced’. The full second round announcement including more headliners is set to be announced at the beginning of September.

The Presets
Nick Warren (UK)
Galvatrons
16 Bit Lolitas
Mission Control
Gus Da Hoodrat & Jaime Doom (Bang Gang DJs)
Kazu Kimura (JP)
Skool of Thought
The Stafford Brothers
Bass Kleph

Tickets are on sale from Thursday 31 July. After selling out last year and an even better line-up for 2008 I reckon you best be quick!
