Following the leaked lineup news that a reformed Icehouse is set to play Meredith this year comes the news that the festival is set to be headlined by none other than Western Victoria boy made good Nick Cave and his bunch of dirty rock n’ roll buccaneers Grinderman! Nick Cave, Warren Ellis, Martyn Casey and Jim Sclavunos.

A sonic bomb going off; all the skill, power, energy, desire and expressive brilliance of these four wizards unleashed in every direction. The band that have no rules, that take no prisoners, that are playing their only Victorian show. The Meredith Ballot is now open and tickets have been held at last year’s price of $279 +bf for a weekend camping ticket.

Featuring new camping areas and new food options, they’re kicking back and ready to celebrate their 21st birthday in style, with the remainder of the lineup to be revealed soon.
