Melbourne’s Zoo Twilights concert series reveals 2019 lineup

The lineup features a singular set of double bills and stylistic collisions: Briggs, Archie Roach & Alice Sky will take to the stage together, Rufus Wainwright will rub shoulders with Melbourne-based singer-guitarist Mojo Juju, while frequent collaborators Sampa The Great and REMI will also join forces. 

 

Aussie favourites The Cat Empire, Vera Blue, former kid wunderkinds Hanson and hip-hop hitmaker Aloe Blacc round out the rest of the lineup.

 

 

The unusual venue’s beautiful lawns will play host to the series each weekend from Friday January 25 to Saturday March 9. The closing date is the last slot left unnannounced, so keep an eye on this space.

 

 

To top it all off, all proceeds from the event will go towards saving the adorable Eastern Barred Bandicoot from full-blown extinction.
