Mountain Sounds Festival Announces Headline Act

Okay, when did this festival get so great? Mountain Sounds Festival was shaping up to be great, but now it’s something else entirely. Alison Wonderland has been announced as the headline act for the summer event and boy can you smell the excitement in the air. But … there’s more to come? 

With early bird tickets already sold out and the likes of The Kite String Tangle, SAFIA, D.D. Dumbo, The Jungle Giants and TKay Maidza already gracing the stellar line up, Mountain Sounds Festival 2015 is shaping up to be the ultimate Summer event that has just grown even bigger. Today we are thrilled to announce Alison Wonderland will be bringing the most innovative of her floor-filling beats as the headline act for the festival. With a slew of other incredible acts added to the list, one final, and very special guest will be announced in January.

Wonderland has earned her place at the top of the bill, having this year sold out her own national headline tour two times over, reached number 1 on the Australian electronic iTunes chart with her Calm Down EP, as well as number 2 on the general album charts. Sharing the stage with other musical legends, DZ Deathrays, Kilter, The Griswolds and Pepa Knight, there’s a solid chance punters ears will never be the same.

Also added to the line up is stripped-back folksters Winterbourne, Brisbane dance duo Odd Mob, indie rockers Little Earthquake, and hard-hitting innovative producer Acaddamy.

There will be a brand new addition to the festival in 2015, the Jungle Stage (Presented by Jungle Studios). The Jungle Stage line up will include PH Fat, Nova & the Experience, Dr Kong & the Stem Cells, AViVAA, Owen Rabbit, Colour Cage, White Walkers, Rookie ,Via Alchemy and East of Here. 

One final, and very special guest will be announced in January.  

Once again held in the stunning surrounds of Mount Penang Parklands in Kariong, Central Coast, NSW, the festival is conveniently situated halfway between Sydney and Newcastle and is the perfect environment to be swept away into the world of the best and newest Australian music. Mountain Sounds is a proudly local, environmentally sustainable event, priding itself on providing a platform to support local artists, business and the wider community. Early bird tickets have already sold out, so jump in for 2 days of music, art, camping and sounds from the mountain.
