Baba Stiltz, Pantha Du Prince, and Blood Orange: Sugar Mountain Returns

One of Australia's most compelling festivals, Melbourne's Sugar Mountain, has just dropped one heck of a line up.

Launching in 2011 and rapidly growing, year after year, into a staple on the year's calendar in music and art, Sugar Mountain—now held in the grounds of the city's Victorian College of the Arts—will make its mark yet again this coming January, with a line up so huge it's leaving us torn for who to mention first. Here we go.

Sugar Mountain 2017's line up includes Blood Orange, Pantha Du Prince, Baba Stiltz, Palms Trax, Kornél Kovács, Little Simz, Suzanne Ciani and Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Moses Sumney, MY DISCO, Tornado Wallace, CC:DISCO!, Daydreams DJs, Slum Sociable, Sui Zhen, KUČKA, ALTA and Dro Carey.

To name but a few. The festival, which THUMP are proud to be partnering on, will also feature artwork and visuals from MOMO, Robyn Moody x Caroline Polachek, Karan Singh and loads more, and will see the return of the Sugar Mountain sensory restaurant, the Boiler Room stage, and the Theatre Space—where Kirin J Callinan once Skyped Neil Finn for a duet.
