Meredith Music Festival 2022 Line-up

2022 marks the 30th anniversary of Meredith Music Festival and Aunty has lit all the candles on the cake with the headline act.

"Seldom has there been a more anticipated guest," begins Aunty. "In the beating heart of Saturday night, all Supernatural paths lead to this.

"It's taken some spectacular planetary alignment and, finally, here we are, for the first time ever. Lighting every candle on the 30th Meredith's cake: Caribou."

Expect 'blissful folktronica, sun-kissed psychedelia and surging house bangers' from Dan Snaith and his band 'who flip out through every flavour of fun'.



South London post-punk band Dry Cleaning will also make their Meredith debut in 2022, a group who walk 'in the ghostly shadows of Wire, Magazine and Joy Division'.

One of Country's true treasures, Youth Yindi will bring their 'songs that altered the very fabric of this country' to Meredith.

Another icon of Australian music, Courtney Barnett will grace the Meredith stage for the first time in seven years, nine years since she made her debut in the 3333 before the world had caught on.



London-based The Comet Is Coming incorporate elements of jazz, rave-ready electronica, funk and psychedelic rock showcased superbly on their latest album 'Hyper-Dimensional Extension Beam'.

Then there's the 'chameleonic pop prodigy' Tkay Maidza, indie rock icon Sharon Van Etten, freaky punks Private Function, the Crown Prince of Compton DJ Quik, Portuguese-born Danish pop-R&B singer-songwriter Erika de Casier, the celestial grooves of Babe Rainbow, the king of Chicago house Derrick Carter.

Other line-up highlights include CLAMM, Minami Deutsch, Nu Genea, SHOUSE, Tasman Keith, Rot TV and Surprise Chef.

To take place 9-11 December, everyone is treated equally at Meredith Music Festival. "There's only one type of ticket. Everyone flies First Class," shares Aunty Meredith.

"The newcomers, old-timers, no-brainers and go-againers. The Bluegummers, Bush Campers, West Kevins and Outer Spacers. The Silent Wedgers, Tucker Tenters, Meredith Gifters, Couch Sippers and Sunset Strippers. The Tai Chi-ers, Arch of Lovers, Fancy Dressers, Inspiration Pointers, Pink Flamingoers and Sky Show-ers. The Dawn Convoyers, Wristband Wranglers, Campsite Fluffers, Designated Drivers and Gazebo MacGyvers. The Boot Raisers, CleanUp Songers, Things On Stickers and Sunrise Saluters. The Red Tree-ers, Fell-Asleepers, and all Postcode 3333ers.



"Same size, same shape, still BYO everywhere, still independent, with no commercial sponsors, and one stage fits all.

"We guarantee that we will continue to listen, fix things if they don't work, not fix them if they do, and Keep On Making Meredith Meredithy.

"Every ticket helps regional organisations do great things in the district. We are grateful to the wonderful people of the region, who so graciously help host Meredith.

"I hope to see you in The Sup'."

Meredith Music Festival takes place at Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre (VIC) 9-11 December.
