With just five weeks to go until Splendour in the Grass lights up Ngarindjin / North Byron Parklands for the 21st time, the festival has added a bunch of exciting new acts to the lineup, set to perform on stages across the festival grounds…

Stop by the Byron Bay Brewery Bar to catch a stacked lineup featuring some of the hottest up and coming acts in town including fun-loving larrikins Beddy Rays with their heartfelt lyrics, huge hooks and mosh-worthy riffs, the infectious tunes of captivating breakout stars Chutney, and indie-rock six-piece Cool Sounds whose music nods to 80s pop, cheerful funk and alt-country. Don’t miss the fuzz, synths, samples and synergy of one of the most exciting new bands emerging from Melbourne’s underground Eggy, or the crooning and wailing of Ghost Mutt as they hurl their special brand of pop-rock into the universe. There’s the catchy tracks, captivating personality and out-of-the-box style of Go-Jo plus genre expanding trio The Grogans who explore manoeuvres in surf, punk, blues, garage, psych, rockabilly, and reggae.

Catch the indie tones and surf rock tempo of Lazy Ghost, and continue to ride the wave of the surf rock renaissance with WA legends Old Mervs, witness the enigmatic and colourful live show of Northern Rivers’ own Pasiflorez and prepare to get sweaty when five-piece indie-rock band Ra Ra Viper take to the stage. Enter the world of dream pop duo Royel Otis as they take inspiration from Japanese city pop and 90s nostalgia and enjoy the radiant indie-rock sounds of Melbourne five piece The Velvet Club. Stop by the Byron Bay Brewery Bar on Thursday for an extra special opening night party with special performances, and giveaways.

When it’s time to dance, head to Smirnoff Seltzer Springs where you can enjoy Palm Springs vibes by day and Vegas neon’s by night, along with a full DJ lineup curated by some of the East Coast’s finest selectors including Northern Rivers legends Bare Foot Beat, ready to serve you some all-time favourite local DJ masters. Known for their monthly parties in Byron, Billinudgel, and Brisbane, expect tech house, progressive tech house, deep house and every other house. When life gives you lemons, recover with Sundays Lemonade! Brisbane’s newest monthly rooftop party people is relocating to Splendour to provide some of the best hip hop, R&B, Afro and Soulection.

Catch the brains behind Lost Paradise Festival and Paradise Club nights Lost Sundays when they hit Splendour with a mix of artists spanning all genres in the electronic space. While the Doctor Daytime crew combine great music and vibes with their infectious energy, talent and company. Get ready this July, as they show you why they run such successful events across staple venues in Geelong and Melbourne.

There’s more music to be discovered in the desert-inspired, cacti-filled oasis of Smirnoff Seltzer Springs with a creative and energetic set shifting between house, disco, techno and more from Jessie Belters and an appearance from Byron Bay’s own Dan Muz with his melodic and groove driven sound. Then there’s the ultimate party starter and master of mixing Yazmin, the sexy sunset vibes and brain fizzing late night bangers of Club Raiders DJs, the evolving sound of Beandip, the OG of the Byron scene Spacie and life of the party Kira Sunday. Get ready to tear up the dancefloor!

Don’t miss the infectious sounds of Cashew as they take you on a joyous journey through house, RnB and disco, and witness Reiflex’ deep love of music as he shifts the energy with his renowned performance. When you’re ready to get down, or in need of a pick-up then grab your drink and meet Tony Velvet on the dance floor. Enjoy the minimal, house, groove and breakbeat of Chilean DJ Tere and take in the magnetic stage presence and euphoria of Kaktus’ set.

Now get ready for all this music and more when Splendour in the Grass celebrates it’s 21st birthday this July, and keep your eyes peeled for Slowthai and Rainbow Kitten Surprise replacements as they are coming soon!
