Beirut Pull Out Of Harvest Festival

One of the many great drawcards at this year's Harvest festival, American indie-folk/world music mash up group Beirut, have pulled out of the last two dates of the event.

The band were forced to cancel their show at the Enmore Theatre earlier this week due to illness, though at the time of its cancellation the band and promoters were confident that they would be able to recover in time to fuilfil their Harvest commitments. Unfortunately this has not been the case and the band will not be appearing at the Sydney or Brisbane events over the weekend.

Revised times, taking into account the band's cancellation, are below. The Sydney and Brisbane events happen this Saturday and Sunday respectively.
