There have been murmurs of legendary festival kingpin All Tomorrow’s Parties expanding its reach to Australia, and it’s actually happening in January 2009.
Victorian alpine resort Mt Buller will host the three-day festival from 9 to 11 January, with a truly special headliner in Nick Cave. The celebrated troubadour will be backed up by a host of international and local acts. With three days to play with, we’re expecting big things.
All Tomorrow’s Parties is responsible for the iconic Don’t Look Back concert series, which debuted in Australia earlier this year to great acclaim. This September’s ATP festival in New York is “co-curated” by My Bloody Valentine and features so-hip-it-gives-me-heartburn talent like Mercury Rev, Fuck Buttons, Dinosaur Jnr. and Thurston Moore. These guys know how it’s done!
