THE BLURST OF TIMES Adds JACK RIVER To Lineup
+ Loads More ‘Excellent’ Extras
Three Weeks To Go
The team of monkeys behind The Blurst of Times have been working hard at their typewriters and today up-the-game with the addition of Jack River to the already heaving lineup as well as a treasure trove of extra surprises.
It’s no secret that The Blurst of Times is a truly euphoric experience. Taking place in the heart of Queensland’s Fortitude Valley, the festival is already in its third year. With past headliners including the likes of Violent Soho, Dune Rats and DZ Deathrays it’s the ultimate dingy music discovery utopia.
Jack River joins the good company of Skegss, Ngaiire, Royal Headache, The Creases, I Know Leopard and more at the end of this month. Jack River’s highly acclaimed debut EP Highway Songs No. 2 out on I Oh You won her a slew of fans and saw her sell out shows around the country recently.
Also adding to the (let’s be honest) understated ‘Summer of Rose’ wine bar, organisers today announce the king of kings, Elvis himself will be getting down and Blursty. Brisvegas style shotgun weddings are on offer from 5pm – 8pm for those who ‘can’t help falling in love’ with the idea of a dodgy wedding in The Brightside beer garden.
With 1am lock-out-laws a thing of the past, kick-ons are a plenty with late night runs announced for each location following the festival. The Foundry hosts Skegss for a DJ set, The Brightside sees an encore set from the city’s best Blink 182 12-piece covers band Bris 182 and Black Bear Lodge keeps it refined with DJs playing nothing but the hits, nothing but the hits, nothing but the hits till late.
Tickets are selling fast for Brisbane’s dankest one day rager. Please buy one so the monkeys can buy more bananas and typewriters.
