One of the most anticipated events on the Australian summer calendar has locked in its final major act. The iconic Meredith Music Festival has announced that groundbreaking New York art-rock ensemble TV On The Radio will be touching down to headline this year's event.
A Festival Finale with a Legendary Headliner
The confirmation of TV On The Radio as the festival's last headliner has sent waves of excitement through the local music community. The group, known for their genre-defying sound that blends rock, electronica, and soul, will perform on the hallowed Supernatural Amphitheatre stage.
This marks a significant return for the band, who last performed in Australia over a decade ago. Their inclusion is seen as a major coup for festival organisers, solidifying the event's reputation for securing exclusive and influential international acts.
The 2024 Meredith Music Festival is scheduled to run from Friday, December 13th to Sunday, December 15th. The event will once again be held at the private property in Meredith, just outside of Geelong in Victoria, a site revered by festival-goers for its unique, no-frills atmosphere.
The Complete Lineup Takes Shape
With the headliner now announced, the full picture of the festival's musical offering comes into focus. TV On The Radio joins a previously announced roster of diverse and talented acts.
The lineup features an impressive mix of local and international artists across various genres. Attendees can look forward to performances by:
- British post-punk icons Sleaford Mods
- Acclaimed American singer-songwriter Moses Sumney
- Australian electronic music stalwart Mike Callander
- Rising local punk band The Slingers
This carefully curated selection promises to deliver the eclectic and high-quality musical experience that Meredith is famous for, ensuring there is something for every taste.
