Overview
After weeks of Facebook guessing games, the OutsideIn festival lineup has been announced. Locked in to be held over three levels at Manning Bar in the University of Sydney, the boutique music festival cooked up by Sydney touring and management agency Astral People and record label Yes Please returns for its third instalment on Saturday, November 29. Forecast to sell out like its 2012 and 2013 events, OutsideIn will spread its super solid lineup over three stages.
Enough chatskies, who's on the bill? Headlining the bunch, '90s US hip-hop legends The Pharcyde are sure to draw the surefire nostalgics. Sydney's beloved electronic trio Seekae will crank out tracks from their recently-released album alongside Germany's Pantha Du Prince and America's Giraffage. Rounding things out with some solid '80s synth and the best hair in Australian music right now, Melbourne duo Client Liaison take the last spot on OutsideIn's first main bill announcement.
Keeping the beats rolling from a kickass program at Splendour in the Grass, Red Bull Music Academy will dominate one of the three OutsideIn stages; with UK garage legend Wookie, US fancy dancer DJ Spinn, Four Tet-produced MC Rome Fortune (US), Jubilee (US), Fishing, Guerre, Black Vanilla and local favourites Preacha & Moriarty, with Aussie RBMA alumni Sui Zhen, opening the stage.
To the DJ roundup, OutsideIn have booked some serious house-loving, party-inducing talent this time around. Sweden’s HNNY, Melburnian Tornado Wallace and Plastic World’s Retiree join local Astral People kids Andy Webb and Ariane.
With a host of both local and international artists yet to be announced, OutsideIn is back for another year of beats-you-may-have-missed and downright shindigging.
OutsideIn is happening at Manning Bar, University of Sydney on November 29. Early bird tickets go on sale Friday 8th August - $70 + bf, until sold out. General admission to follow for $80 +bf. All tickets are available through Oztix.
