Let's face it, there's more than 5 top picks at this years Splendour, but we're keeping it simple and giving a taste of our favourites to hit up this weekend (and at non conflicting times!)
HENRY ROLLINS
8.30pm Friday 20th GW McLennan Tent
Black Flag, punk rock legend, Henry Rollins, while not releasing anything of late, has certainly more than enough material to pull from his decades in the industry, not to mention the potential for a rant or two. Catch this legend on the first night of the Splendour Weekend.
DUNE RATES + FRIENDS
10pm Friday 20th GW McLennan Tent
An absolute festival staple, Dune Rats are where it's at for what will probably be the biggest party to kick off the first night. Plus with the addition of mysterious "friends" helping to smash through their set, you know it's going to be one hell of a good time.
SUPERORGANISM
2.45pm Saturday 21st Mix Up Stage
Come Saturday afternoon, chill out a little and enjoy the vibes of Superorganism. London-based, eight person collective of international musicians and pop culture junkies who formed just over a year ago, will take you on an adventure "Feeling like a boss, and Staring at the stars".
AMYL & THE SNIFFERS
12pm Sunday 22nd Ampitheatre
Kick off the final day with the best looking mullets, some good pub rock and an electric stage presence from bad ass frontwoman Amy Louise. Fairly new to the scene, the Melbourne band channel Australian 70's rock and have all the fun, join them Sunday if you're still alive by that point.
KENDRICK LAMAR
10.45pm Sunday 22nd Ampitheatre
End the weekend with none other than Kendrick Lamar. Making a massive mark in the industry, Kendrick is one of the most critically acclaimed and successful rappers of our time. If you haven't yet been to a performance, this is your chance!
April 28, 2023
Brisbane garage pop-rockers, Velociraptor, banger track, 'Ramona' is filled with the right vibes to take you to the weekend. The single is catchy and guaranteed to still be in your head when you wake up feeling haggard tomorrow. At least the song will pick you up again.
April 14, 2023
This Friday we're hitting you directly in the feels with this purely honest and direct song 'Ivy' from the Footscray folk-punk band The Football Club. It's an absolute chune, but be warned it might make you cry.
March 24, 2023
This Friday we've got the windows down and stereo up, pumping the killer tunes from the film, RocknRolla. While the movie received mixed reviews there's no doubt the standout is the soundtrack. Filled with some sexy rock 'n' roll tunes this playlist will get you dancing into the weekend.
