“I’m so excited!"

Queensland’s inaugural The Long Sunset has added more local talent to an already stacked bill.

Set in the glorious green fields of the Scenic Rim, an hour from Brisbane and the Gold Coast, the festival was unveiled last year, with headliners Angus & Julia Stone, Ball Park Music and many more in tow.

Today, its boutique program expands, with the edition of Jack Gray, Clea, Asha Jefferies, SOFIA ISELLA and Cheek2Cheek, all of whom will perform at Elysian Fields for the February 12 event.

“I’m thrilled to be a part of The Long Sunset,” Clea said. “The Scenic Rim is so incredibly beautiful and adding music to the mix will result in an amazing day.”

Jack Gray added: “I’m so excited to be back home in Queensland and for The Long Sunset to be my first Australian show of 2022!”

When the festival was announced in November, project CEO Joel Edmondson said: “It can sometimes be difficult to capture or define Queensland’s cultural identity, but it's undeniable that the unique character of our landscape is at its heart.

“Bringing world-class music to stunning places in regional Queensland is our passion because it’s one of the best ways to immerse visitors in what Queensland is all about. We are thrilled to debut The Long Sunset, an event that is sure to become an iconic, annual feature of the Queensland Music Trails in the years to come.”
