The annual festival has named 23 acts destined for The Farm this coming March
Next year's double-sized The Hills Are Alive event is starting to take shape, with this morning's revelation that the 2015 festival will be headlined by esteemed local artists such as ascendant solo prospect Remi and similarly rising electronic three-piece SAFIA.
Both artists have had a triumphant 2014, with Remi being named the recipient of the $50,000 Carlton Dry Music Grant earlier this year, and SAFIA garnering themselves a solid reputation for their polished, aurally lush live performances — even in the most stripped-back of settings.
Taking over 'The Farm', outside Melbourne, from 27-29 Mar next year, The Hills Are Alive 2015 will also welcome performances from the twang-dappled strains of sibling duo the Pierce Brothers, former Unearthed High winner Asta, acclaimed Tasmanian punk outfit Luca Brasi, Melburnian electro-rock whiz Harts, Sydney-bred buzz act Spookyland, West Australian singer-songwriter Grace, Kiwi troubadour Marlon Williams and Victorian upstart LUCIANBLOMKAMP, among several others.

So far, The Hills Are Alive have revealed 23 names aboard their 2015 line-up, with room for a few more to be added to the mix between now and showtime in March. If you signed up to the festival website in time to receive "The Farmer's Secret Password", then you could be purchasing your tickets right now, which we would advise if you can — the past six Hills Are Alive (and two NYE On The Hill) events sold out, and with the names already attached to hit the farm next year, 2015 isn't looking like it'll be any different.
