The 2017 Bluesfest lineup just keeps on growing, with festival organisers today adding a bunch of new artists to its roster, while also revealing the all-important playing times for this year’s event.
American hip hop legend Nas leads Bluesfest’s latest lineup announcement, and he’ll be collaborating with New Orleans brass band The Soul Rebels for an exclusive Aussie performance.
Also joining the Bluesfest roster today are the likes of Kasey Chambers, Busby Marou, flautist and composer Wouter Kellerman, folk and grunge duo Little Georgia and Byron Bay local Lucy Gallant.
With Bluesfest 2017 only five weeks away now, the festival has unveiled its full list of playing times and stages, which you can check out below in full.
Bluesfest 2017 takes place just outside of Byron Bay this Easter long weekend. Catch the full lineup, below.
