GZA, The Beaches, Kenya Grace + More Announce Groovin The Moo 2024 Sideshows

A round of headlining sideshows have been announced for this year’s Groovin The Moo festival, featuring a slew of its international artists. Heading the announcement is Wu-Tang Clan founder GZA, who is bringing his band The Phunky Nomads to Australia for the first time as part of his Liquid Swords Live world tour. The shows will take place almost a year to the day since GZA was last in Australia with Wu-Tang, on their ‘NY State of Mind’ co-headlining tour with Nas.

Also announcing their own shows are Canadian indie-rock band The Beaches. The band released their breakthrough second studio album Blame My Ex in September of last year, and will be playing in Australia for the very first time as part of the Groovin the Moo festivities.

The Beaches – ‘Blame Brett’

Other GtM artists that have announced their own shows include recent Hottest 100 debutante Kenya Grace, indie-pop singer-songwriter Claire Rosinkranz and retro crooner Stephen Sanchez. A full list of each artist’s tour dates, as well as ticketing information, can be accessed below.

Groovin The Moo is set to return this April, taking in Adelaide, Canberra, Bendigo, the Sunshine Coast, Bunbury and – for the very first time – Newcastle, replacing the previous locale of Maitland on the tour itinerary. Other artists performing at the festival this year include The Kooks, DMA’S, King Stingray, The Jungle Giants and the Spice GirlsMelanie C in DJ mode.
