Southbound Unveils Second Artist Announcement

Staff Writer

Music and comedy unite for an impressive second announcement.

Southbound’s 2016 bill is shaping up to be its biggest yet, with the festival adding some impressive musical acts and a handful of comedy names to the bill.

Set to kick go down once again Sir Stewart Bovell Park from Friday 8 January until Sunday 10 January, and already boasting massive talent like Bloc Party, Foals, Disclosure, Courtney Barnett - we could go on for quite a while here – the second artist announcement features:

Soak, Jarryd James, Elliphant, Nazeem Hussain, Randy, Adam Rozenbach, Nick Cody, Becky Lucas, Tien Tran.

The expanded comedy line-up follows suit with the overall vibe of next year’s event, with the first artist announcement featuring an eclectic bunch of acts and an extra day being added.
