Valley Fiesta!

I've finally had a look over the lineup for the free music extravaganza that is the Valley Fiesta and I thought I'd share my picks with you. Running from the 9th to the 12th of September it is a celebration of all things in the Valley, at least the cultured part of the Valley, not the shitty night-club and strippers end that we all know and tend to avoid until one too many drinks have been embibed.


I personally recommend the Cairos (if you like poppy-indie), John Steel Singers (guitar indie) and Parades (harmonised indie). Yes, this year is mainly indie and mainly local bands, but it's free! And you may find a band you like! I've linked the band names to Triple J Unearthed where you can download free music of all of the bands.

I don't really know the Boat People or Ball Park Music, but people have talked about them a lot of late, so I may go see what they are like. Because it's free, it doesn't matter!

If you don't like free stuff, all of the music venues are also holding events in conjunction with the Fiesta. Check out the official website for the full lineup.
