Fresh Finds: Class Of 2025 – Aussie Acts To Add To Your Playlist

Gossling, Melbourne Ska Orchestra & Former Powderfinger Guitarist Top Latest BIGSOUND Live Announce

An enormous number of bands have been added to the bill this morning

An enormous number of massive acts have been added to the BIGSOUND Live line up for 2013, as organisers unveil plans to showcase some of the biggest names in Australian music to the hundreds of delegates who will make their way to Brisbane's Fortitude Valley over a few glorious days in September.

Leading the second announcement – following a short but incredibly strong first release of names – are the likes of former Powderfinger guitarist Darren Middleton, Blue King Brown frontwoman Natalie Pa'apa'a, much adored chanteuse Gossling and ska devotees the Melbourne Ska Orchestra. There is just the one international band on the bill so far, with Yukon Blonde from Canada filling that role.

Calling All Cars, Chance Waters, KINGSWOOD and Jonti will all ensure there's a varied crowd checking out the showcases, as will the likes of Davey Lane, Feelings, Sheppard and former Short Stack frontman Diviney.
