Groovin The Moo have announced that Mutemath and Vic Mensa have had to cancel their appearances at this year’s festival.
This leaves two huge holes for the festival to fill and they have done a valiant job pulling in crooner Jarryd James and producer What So Not at the last minute.
The festival is due to kick off in less than a month with acts including Alison Wonderland, ODESZA and Twenty One Pilots. While these losses are a blow to the international side of the lineup, it just makes the local side even stronger.
Mutemath and Vic Mensa were both due to play sideshows around the country which are now also cancelled. Mutemath have cited “personal circumstances” while we’re yet to get a statement from Mensa regarding the cancelation.
Groovin The Moo will kick-off on Saturday, 23rd April in Maitland. Check out the revised lineup below.
