If you need much more convincing to attend Playground Weekender in Feb, you're not much of a human being if it's line up that you're whinging about. Anyways, I'm going to humour you a little because I'm that excited. Here are the new additions to the already jam packed bill. This really is one of the best festivals in Australia, I liken it to Splendour's cuter, less psychotic little sister.
I've kept the descriptions of each band provided to me because even if you haven't heard of some of these band names, when you see some of the members are from other well known acts, it might tickle your fancy. Clearly I haven't heard of all these acts but it is the new discoveries that make any festival memorable. My personal "Can't Wait To Sees" are in colour.
