About Anna Lunoe 

.

.

Anna Lunoe, the boundary-breaking artist from Sydney, has made her mark as a versatile DJ, radio host, producer, vocalist, and curator in the dance scene. Rising from a radio host on FBi community radio, she quickly became one of Australia’s top DJs. Her debut EP, Anna Lunoe & Friends, showcased her exceptional DJ and production skills, leading to a series of club bangers on labels like Future Classic, Fools Gold, Mad Decent, and OWSLA. Anna’s success extended to the USA, with appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, and EDC Las Vegas, where she was the first solo female to play the main stage. ​ 

Through the pandemic, Anna maintained momentum, releasing the single ‘Back Seat’ and launching the Create/Destroy podcast. 2022 brought the release of her club-anthem ‘Double Dip’ and the acclaimed EP Saturday Love. With no plans to slow down, Anna remains on track and ready to impress with festival appearances and headline performances, leaving an exciting year ahead with more music and touring in 2023 into 2024, including playing at all three The Chemical Brothers shows!

About James Holroyd 

Long standing opening DJ for The Chemical Brothers, James Holroyd started plying his trade back in 1991 in the heady days of the original Back to Basics at Leeds’ Music Factory in the UK. He was introduced to the decks playing a mixture of funk, house, disco and hip hop, and by 1992 his unique style had secured him a job as resident. James Holroyd is guaranteed to warm up live audiences at all three Australian shows! 

Last in Australia in 2019, performing sold-out headline shows across the East Coast, The Chemical Brothers have been busy touring the world. Embarking on headline tours and festivals sets across the UK & Europe, the duo are only building further anticipation for their dedicated Australian fans when they grace our shores next February & March.
