Dozens of new acts have been added to the Always Live music program for 2024.
Among the new wave of performers is a show from Indian folk sensation Maithili Thakur, who will perform her first-ever Australian concert at Margaret Court Arena on December 1.
American alt-pop outfit Banks will also play a single Australian exclusive at Northcote Theatre, marking the 10th anniversary of her hit album ‘Goddess’.
Additional performances have also been announced for St. Vincent, Tramp and Italian-American DJ and producer Anyma – who recently sold out six shows at the Sphere in Las Vegas.
Supported by the state government, Always Live 2024 now features more than 100 events from over 400 artists – with 300 of them hailing from Victoria.
This year’s line-up features a mix of renowned artists and rising stars from Australia and abroad, including Jack White, The Offspring, Missy Higgins and Baker Boy.
Visit Victoria chief executive Brendan McClements said the program would provide yet another reason for visitors to come to the state.
“Always Live positions Victoria as a vibrant cultural hub and creates fantastic opportunities for local businesses to thrive during the busy spring and summer events period,” Mr McClements said.
Always Live chief executive Psyche Payne said the program catered for gig goers of all income levels.
“Along with ticketed shows, Always Live also has free, family-friendly and low-cost events giving more people the chance to go to a gig, right here in Victoria – the live music capital of Australia.”
Always Live will run from November 22 to December 8.
