GZA, The Beaches, Stephen Sanchez Lead Groovin The Moo Sideshows

The Groovin The Moo fun is in full swing, with tickets for the travelling festival on sale as of yesterday, while today, tour promoters Frontier Touring have announced sideshows.

Festival sideshows are led by Claire Rosinkranz, GZA & The Phunky Nomads, Kenya Grace, Stephen Sanchez and The Beaches, offering a little something for everyone this April and May.

As well as her appearances at Groovin The Moo, Rosinkranz will play sideshows at Melbourne’s Max Watts, Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory, Brisbane’s The Zoo and Perth’s Rosemount Hotel – only the Melbourne show is all ages, while the rest are 18+.

Meanwhile, GZA & The Phunky Nomads will play some unreal, intimate shows at Sydney’s Liberty Hall, Melbourne’s 170 Russell, Brisbane’s The Triffid and Perth’s Magnet House. Kenya Grace, playing in Australia for the first time, is heading to Melbourne’s Night Cat, Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory, Brisbane’s The Zoo and WA’s Freo.Social.

Following his massive debut Australian tour last year, Stephen Sanchez returns this year, performing at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre, Melbourne’s Forum Theatre, Brisbane’s The Tivoli and Perth’s Astor Theatre. Lastly, the effortlessly cool sisters and close friends of The Beaches will take over Sydney’s The Lansdowne, Brisbane’s The Zoo and Melbourne’s Howler.

You can find all the tour dates below. Fans can buy pre-sale tickets via Frontier Touring tomorrow – with staggered timings per show – before the general sale opens on Monday, 12 February. You can find all the ticketing information here.

This year’s Groovin The Moo festival will kick off in Wayville on Thursday, 25 April, then roll through Canberra and Bendigo over the next few days.
