Foreshore headliners Empire ofthe Sun ARIA favs?

Sun 11th Oct, 2009 in Local News

The ARIA nominations are in and Foreshore Summer Music Festival headliner Empire of the Sun has done well.

Parklife is now done and dusted and Australia has seen what the much-hyped Empire of the Sun show will bring. While PNAU’s Nick Littlemore, the other half of EOTS, won’t be gracing us with his presence, it’s sure to be a fun show when Luke Steele fronts up and headlines Foreshore next month.

Tickets are still available for Foreshore at www.lexingtonmusic.com.au, Parliament Clothing, Qjump.com.au, Moshtix, Ticketek and Landspeed Records.

Head to the FL forum and tell us what you’re most looking forward to this festival season in the capital.
