The Hills Are Alive Announces 2015 Lineup
Next year's lineup is worthy of a Julie Andrews Twirl or two.
The Hills Are Alive music festival has today revealed their 2015 lineup, featuring a gaggle of Australian acts headlined by Melbourne-based hip-hop artist Remi. Seven years young, the 2015 edition will also mark the first time the event has spilled over into a second evening, with festival organisers promising "twice as many good vibes."
Hosted at the McLaren family farm an hour and a half out of Melbourne, THAA 2015 will feature Canberra electronic group SAFIA, Tassie punk-rockers Luca Brasi, Melbourne folk-duo Pierce Brothers, Adelaide singer-songwriter Timberwolf, triple j 2012 Unearthed High winner Asta, NZ country music crooner Marlon Williams, plus a whole lot more.
Despite their 2015 expansion, The Hills Are Alive remains a small festival by design, offering an antidote to the massive crowds that often characterise these kinds of events. With a capacity of just 2000 people, tickets are by invitation only, meaning you need to either be friends with one of the acts or know somebody who's been before. Attendees are encouraged to carpool to keep their impact on the environment to a minimum, while glass and pets are prohibited on account of the cows with whom you'll be sharing the campsite.
The Hills Are Alive 2015 kicks off at The Farm at 3pm Friday March 27 and runs until 4pm Sunday March 29. For more information on the line-up, head to the festival website.
