EXCLUSIVE: Port Fairy Folk Festival Adds Even More Names To Line-Up

The fourth-round line-up announcement for this year's eagerly awaited Port Fairy Folk Music Festival is upon us and, led by the likes of Skipping Girl Vinegar, Bearded Gypsy Band and Frank Yamma, 2015 is shaping up to be one of the biggest in the event's storied history.

Things may have seemed a little quiet on the Skipping Girl Vinegar front of late, with last full-length Keep Calm Carry The Monkey dropping back in 2011, but the Melburnian indie-rockers nonetheless have kept up appearances in the time since to the point of being coaxed to bring out the big guns to grace the Port Fairy stage. South Australia's Bearded Gypsy Band, meanwhile, have been solidly accruing a dedicated following everywhere their stomp-along sounds are heard, and local legend Frank Yamma should need no introduction to discerning listeners who have acquainted themselves with his dulcet tones over his more-than-decade-long career.

The new additions also include Luluc, Mike Brady and the Fiona Ross Band, all of whom join a sizeable existing roster of drawcards comprised of Sinead O'Connor, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Wagons, John Butler Trio, Christine Anu, Davidson Brothers and many more.

The final line-up for the 39th annual Port Fairy Folk Music Festival boasts more than 100 acts across 18 venues, 200 performances and four days of festivities from 6-9 March this year. Third-release "Barracoutta" tickets are available now for $265 (adult), purchasable here; For more information about the Port Fairy Folk Festival, see our dedicated event page.
