Not just a killer ‘90s guitar anthem, Freakscene is now a day-long festival of music at the Lakes Entrance Recreation Reserve in rural Victoria on December 20.
Run in cooperation with Arts Victoria and the Lakes Entrance Summer Music Festival, Freakscene has been curated ATP-style by Magic Dirt, who will headline and also deliver a workshop on how to have a long career in the music biz with less trials and tribulations (if that’s even possible).
Acts handpicked by The Dirt include The Drones’ Gareth Liddiard, Sydney’s theredsunband, Nation Blue, Crystal Thomas and The Flowers of Evil, Amaya Laucirica, Midnight Woolf, Modular Lounge and Dane Certificate, with more acts to be announced.
Bands will play all day Saturday with short films and workshops on December 21.
Entry to the festival, which is held about four hours out of Melbourne, is free.
