Sydney’s summer destination the Beck’s Festival Bar has revealed more acts for its 2010 programme. Following on from the announcement that the likes of Grizzly Bear (the first sell-out, of course), Camera Obscura and The Reels would be rolling up to Hyde Park Barracks, there’s now even more to trouble to bank balance.
Big Day Out dark horses The Decemberists will now command a balmy summer evening, with support from hometown good things Bridezilla. Tickets will surely be coveted for that one. Also new to the party is hip hop strongman Grandmaster Flash, Philly straight-talker Amanda Blank and Kiwi beat-maker Recloose.
