Promising "an artistic tidal wave that will engulf the Gold Coast" (we're sure they mean it in the least disastrous way possible), Bleach* Festival returns to the GC next year from February 22 - March 3.
The celebration of coastal culture is set to be headlined by Oz hip hop trailblazer Urthboy, APRA and Deadly award winners Busby Marou, indie disco kings Oh Mercy and punk rock gods Violent Soho. The schedule — or at least what's been unveiled so far — reads as follows:
