Origin NYE Announces First Artists

Staff Writer

Dance your way into 2016 with RL Grime, Golden Features and more.

After settling into a new home at Claremont Showground last year, WA-based New Year’s Eve festival Origin has unveiled the first artists on the end-of-year party.

The venue shift follows a run-in with this City Of Perth council last year, but with a more festival friendly environment and acts like RL Grime, Golden Features on the bill, the festival is shaping up to be a mighty fine way to bring in 2016.

Here are the first names for Origin NYE:

Andy C, Boys Noize, Critical Soundsystem feat. Kasra & Mefjus, Dimension, Foreign Beggars, Fred V & Grafix, Gentleman's Club (Coffi, 50 Carrot & Solomon), Golden Features, Keys N Krates, Kove, Pusha T, RL Grime, Skepta, Snakehips, Spor, Sub Focus (DJ set), Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (DJ set), Yung Lean, Zeds Dead and more to be announced.

Pre-sale tickets go live this afternoon at 5pm via Origin NYE’s website. For all other info, see theGuide or The Music App.
