Meredith Music Festival 2012 is under a month away and for those lucky enough to be headed to the three-day event, the set times have been published. This year’s Meredith is highlighted by Primal Scream, who will be playing for almost an hour and half from Saturday night into Sunday morning.
Of course there’s plenty of other highlights, including Pond – who open up Meredith Friday afternoon. Some of the boys from Pond will be pulling double duty when Tame Impala take the stage just after midnight. Day one also boasts local act Snakadaktal and Canadian sensation Grimes.
Day two will feature the aforementioned Primal Scream, along with the incomparable Chet Faker and Australian alternative rock mainstays Regurgitator. The final day will see Hiatus Kaiyote unleash their praised debut album Tawk Tomahawk on the Meredith crowd before fellow Melbourne act Bitter Sweet Kicks wrap up the three-day festival.
So if you’re going to Meredith, check out the timetable below, highlight the bands you’re keen to see, prep for whatever mindset you deem necessary, and get set for three days of sweet-as tunes.
