A yearly celebration of Australia’s blues, roots, rock and stoner rock scene, the crew over at Mojo Burning Festival are back for another round when the festival hits Brisbane for its fourth year.
Taking on the Hamilton Hotel will be the likes of The Badlands, The Blackwater Fever, Lepers & Crooks, The royal Artillery and Transvaal Diamond Syndicate to name but a few, with a follow up announcement expected to drop early next month.
Packing 20 bands across three stages, there’ll also be plenty of Southern barbecue, as well as a musclecar pre-party in the carpark.
“With a truly national lineup, Mojo Burning aims to provide a positive cultural force, uniting genre acts who independently and without mainstream help achieve success through working hard, touring hard and playing hard,” says Mojo Burning organiser Christian Tryhorn.
“We started Mojo Burning out of necessity. I was touring constantly with my band and coming across so many radical bands who were basically receiving no press or publicity in the wider industry. It’s like there was a forgotten series tour highways off the modern mainstream radar.”
“The festival has now grown its own legs and is ever-evolving but we still try and stay true to the ethos of supporting hard touring and hard playing bands in an ‘all killer no filler’ approach putting amazing acts from all over the country in the one place at a low price for the punter.”
One of the more affordable day festy options in Brisbane at only 30 bucks plus b/f, but with a lot of value packed into that lineup, it all kicks off on Saturday March 25th 2017, with tickets available soon.
