April Sun Festival gets even bigger and adds more names to inaugural line up

The already stacked April Sun bill just got bigger today with the announcement of even more acts joining the concert series bill next month. The multi-date festival will descend on Melbourne's St Kilda throughout April and May, and will play host to the likes of G Flip, Touch Sensitive, Sneaky Soundsystem, You Am I, Cosmo's Midnight, OPIUO, CHILLINIT, Hiatus Kaiyote and many more.

First cab off the rank will be on Thursday, 15th April with The Church and Bob Evans, before Future Classic takes over the next night for their own date with the aforementioned G Flip and Touch Sensitive, as well as Sycco and Thomas Headon. POOF DOOF will be throwing a "DAY DOOF" on Saturday, April 17th with Sneaky Soundsystem, Electric Fields and many, many more acts, before You Am I and Magic Dirt lead the charge on Thursday April 22nd.

A newly announced night on Friday April 23rd will see icons ONLY in the mix with Leo Sayer, Marcia Hines and Kylie Auldist on the bill, with Thick As Thieves booked in for the next night and OPIUO, BLANKE and more holding it down as The Operatives take over on Sunday April 25th.
