Bluesfest in Byron Bay has just announced a second round of acts to add to their previously announced lineup. The first round delighted us with news that legends such as BB King, Elvis Costello, and of course Bob Dylan would be gracing our shores. The 2nd lineup also does not disappoint. Jethro Tull leads the second round of acts, which includes blues rock legends ZZ Top, as well as Australian locals Wolfmother and The Snowdroppers. Check out the full 2nd announcement below.
And if you’re in Melbourne get a taste for Bluesfest this Friday when The Snowdroppers play a headline show at the Ding Dong Lounge in Chinatown.
