First Headliner Announced For This That Festival 2018

UPDATE: This That Festival Drops 2018 Lineup, Releases Statement On Sticky Fingers’ Inclusion

ORIGINAL STORY: Newcastle’s This That festival has unveiled the first headline act for its 2018 lineup, and it’s none other than LA trap, grime and bass lord RL Grime.

RL Grime (real name Henry Alfred Steinway) will return to Australia for This That in November, after performing as part of FOMO Festival earlier this year.

By the time he makes the trip back down under, RL Grime will have released his new album Nova, which is set for release in July.

The rest of this year’s 16-strong lineup will be announced on Tuesday, 26th June — it was originally set to arrive on Monday, 25th June, but organisers have since pushed it back to Tuesday.

The festival is now in its fourth year, and last year’s lineup featured the likes of Alison Wonderland, The Presets, The Preatures and Tash Sultana.
