More Tash Sultana Tash Sultana Profile

Just days after releasing her first new material in 2018Tash Sultana has been announced as the headliner for this year's Lost Picnic festival. 

The ARIA-nominated songwriter will perform an extended set at the event, which has also confirmed a Melbourne date for this October, alongside a number of big names such as Meg Mac, Marlon Williams and Odette.

Check out the full line-up below.

The shows will be Sultana's first local gigs following the release of her debut LP, Flow State, due out on 31 August. 

Lost Picnic was hit with controversy following the 2017 event, with some punters claiming they were stuck waiting in food and bathroom lines for up to 90 minutes at a time and missed out on bands and artists' sets on the day. 

Co-founder Simon Beckingham said, "The team has been working tirelessly and closely with our community to refine the 2018 festival experience and make it the very best year yet.

"We are passionate about delivering an event that both Sydney and Melbourne can be proud of, an experience that supports Aussie artists and local food heroes and kicks off our spectacular spring/summer music season in style."
