Bluesfest 2017 appears once again set to provide countless incredible performances from a massive number of Australian and international acts, and in the lead up to the Byron Bay festival more and more of those acts are revealing their very own sideshows.
Four more Bluesfest acts have just announced their own shows, and we kick off the latest string of dates with shows announced by US two-time Grammy winner Corinne Bailey Rae. On what will be her Australian debut, Bailey Rae will bring her eclectic mix of experimental soul music to Sydney and Melbourne in 2017.
Gallant is also joining a slew of acts making their live Australian debuts next year, with the young LA-based artist set to take on two Bluesfest sideshows with his own brand of future soul music.
British indie outfit Turin Brakes formed in 1999, and will now bring their seventh studio album Lost Property to Australia for the first time courtesy of twin sideshows in Sydney and Melbourne following their Bluesfest 2017 set.
Rounding out the latest announcement, New Orleans-based Nikki Hill is set to perform a single Sydney sideshow, taking her incredible and intoxicating voice to Newtown Social Club for a one-off show after she too plays Bluesfest.
Se below for full dates and details for these newly announced shows, tickets for which are on sale this Wednesday, 26th October.
