Blue Mountains Music Festival 2018 Line-up

Kate Miller-Heidke
Our eclectic team of writers from around Australia – and a couple beyond – with decades of combined experience and interest in all fields.

Missy Higgins, Kate Miller-Heidke and Archie Roach highlight the 23rd Blue Mountains Music Festival of Folk Roots And Blues.


Melbourne singer-songwriter Lior will also be returning in duo format with the internationally renowned musician Paul Grabowsky.

Adding to that classical flavour are guitar legends, The Grigoryan Brothers who are teaming up with multi-instrumentalist Adam Page. Also gracing our stages will be Sydney’s The Backsliders who are making a long-awaited return.



The 17 international acts are headlined by Harry Manx (Can), Steve Poltz (Can), While & Matthews (UK) and Braebach (Scot).

Also adding a distinctive bluegrass flavour for 2018 are Peter Rowan Band (US), Nashville’s 10 String Symphony, Flats and Sharps (UK) and Brothers Comatose (US).



There will be three days of great music on seven stages totalling over a hundred concerts as well as the usual songwriters’ and instrumental circles, Heartland Conversations and roaming performers.

23rd Blue Mountains Music Festival of Folk Roots and Blues returns to Katoomba (NSW) 16-18 March.
