Mojo Burning Festival hits Brisbane for its fourth year this March, with its best lineup to date.
The blues, roots, and stoner rock festival announced an exciting first round of acts early last month, featuring the likes of The Badlands, The Blackwater Fever, Lepers & Crooks, and Transvaal Diamond Syndicate. Now they have bolstered that lineup with ex-QOTSA legend Nick Oliveri, The Dead Ringers, Hell & Whiskey, and more, all playing across three stages at the Hamilton Hotel.
In addition there will be plenty of Southern barbecue on offer across the day, as well as a muscle-car display in the car park.
Mojo Burning organiser Christian Tryhorn explains how the festival grew organically, to the point where it is now attracting big-name international acts. “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.”
The festival is an impressively-affordable $30+BF, and happens on Saturday, March 25th 2017, with tickets available here.
