Bello Winter Music Festival Reveals First Acts For 2019 Event

Here's the first taste!

Bello Winter Music Festival has today revealed the first batch of acts for its 2019 line-up, which already promises to be one of its biggest yet. 

A string of huge international and local names have been confirmed to perform at the festival, taking place from 11-14 July in Bellingen NSW, including Chicago's Tammi Savoy & The Chris Cosello Combo, jazz and world music outfit Senegambian Jazz Band, Melbourne's Lloyd Spiegel, Vaudeville Smash and The Mamas and US group The Montgomery Brothers.

Local favourites Laura Jean, Jess Ribeiro, Leah Flanagan and Hein Cooper have also today been announced on the first artist announcement for 2019, as well as Horns Of Leroy, Gold Member and Merpire.


Now in its fifth year, Bello Winter Music will again take over 14 venues across Bellingen and feature street theatre, circus performances and the psychedelic Magic Bus (yes, that means free rides all around town).

The 2019 edition will also see the return of the sustainability-focused program, Bellingen LeaF, and the hugely-popular Youth Mentorship Program, which gives emerging artists the opportunity to work with established acts featured on the line-up.
