From their debut self-titled EP in 2008 to their acclaimed fourth album ‘Everyone We Know’ in 2017 and relentless touring including support slots for A Tribe Called Quest, Macklemore and Big Boi, Thundamentals live reputation is undeniable. In the last year alone they have graced the stages of triple j’s One Night Stand, Groovin The Moo, Splendour in the Grass and Falls Festival, in addition to selling out their biggest ever headline tour. One of Australia’s most loved Hip-Hop acts, the Sydney via Blue Mountains trio just took out #8 in the Hottest 100 for their track ‘Sally Ft. Mataya’ and are celebrating their tenth anniversary in 2018 with a huge national tour. We’re absolutely stoked that they’ll be stopping by The Paddock this weekend!

PITP believes that a progressive society of equality and tolerance is in part shaped by the provocative artists who dance on its fringes. We afford artists a license to challenge norms, express themselves freely and be agents of change. For that reason, PITP extends a special invitation for Kirin J Callinan to join us in The Paddock this year for his Tasmanian festival debut. We judge Kirin not by a single, spontaneous moment of profanity but rather by a decade of provocative and brilliant work. Kirin J Callinan is rightfully recognised internationally as a master musician as well as a bold and brilliant warrior for originality and diversity and we welcome him to The Paddock this Saturday night. Kirin will be joining us for a full band set and he’ll also share MC duties with local Greens legend Andrea Dawkins.

With lyrics that defy her years, Mallrat’s authentic and observational lo-fi pop Hip-Hop has clocked up more than 16 million streams in the two short years she’s been making music. She’s already supported the likes of Allday, Peking Duk and Maggie Rogers, played Splendour, The Plot and Falls, and sold out a bunch of her own headline shows before making an appearance on this year’s Hottest 100 with her track ‘Better’. With a new EP in the works, the self-described “Hannah Montana of the rap game” is now heading to Tassie this weekend!

Party In The Paddock Founder and Creative Director Jesse Higgs said “Once again we are super humbled and thankful for the support we receive each year on a national level and within the Tassie community. Heading into our 6th year, we’ve expanded our horizons whilst staying true to PITP’s grassroots beginnings. We’re really excited to add these additional acts to the bill and after delving into the recent controversy involving Kirin, we thought it was an integral gesture to put our support behind the artist. The Paddock is ‘Big Enough’ for everyone. See you there!”
