Top Fives: Mountain Sounds Festival 2015
Mountain Sounds Festival will hit the Central Coast in New South Wales this weekend so we chose five artists who we're excited to see perform.
This weekend we'll be witnessing the return of Mountain Sounds Festival, which successfully debuted last year on the Central Coast in New South Wales.
With the line up securing nine spots in the Triple J Hottest 100 this year, it's certainly safe to say the organisers did another wonderful job at booking some of the most worshipped artists in the country at the moment.
The bill on this occasion includes ALISON WONDERLAND, who will be performing her live show for the very first time, ARIA Award winners DZ DEATHRAYS, THE KITE STRING TANGLE, NORTHEAST PARTY HOUSE, SAFIA, TOUCH SENSITIVE, KILTER, THE JUNGLE GIANTS, HATCH and many more. Here are our top five picks to see at Mountain Sounds Festival:
