Tue 17th Jan, 2012 in Local News

If Roger Daltrey, The Pogues, My Morning Jacket and The Specials wasn’t enough to lure you to Byron Bay for Bluesfest 2012, then the addition of John Fogerty to the bill no doubt will be.

The legendary Creedence Clearwater frontman was last on our shores in 2008, when he performed all the hits from his lengthy career including Travelin’ Band, Bad Moon, Green River, Who’ll Stop The Rain, Commotion and Lookin’ Out My Back Door.

Fogerty leads twenty more acts on the the fourth Bluesfest announcement, including Ziggy Marley, Richard Clapton, The Eagle and The Worm and more.

The festival has also unveiled the playing times for four days of Blues and Roots action with Cold Chisel set to headline the Thursday, Crosby Stills & Nash the Friday, John Fogerty the Saturday, John Butler Trio the Sunday and Roger Daltrey the Monday. You can check out the full set-times here.
