Bluesfest, Australia’s multi-award winning Festival, held annually over the long Easter Weekend (March 28 to April 1) has announced its third sensational Line-up for 2013!
Headlining this announcement is ROBERT PLANT, the legendary frontman of the band Led Zeppelin, presenting Sensational Shape Shifters.
Led Zeppelin came to Australia in 1972 and a Robert Plant Tour of Australia has been long awaited by his Australian fans. He last toured in 1996 with Jimmy Page. Plant was voted in the Rolling Stone Readers’ Pick in 2011, ‘The Best Lead Singer of All Time’. Even greater is the news that he has been performing eight Led Zeppelin songs on stage on his current South American Tour. Now the wait is finally over — Robert Plant is coming to our shores and will headline Bluesfest on Saturday, March 30.
Other outstanding artists in the third announcement include Roger Hodgson – The Legendary Voice of Supertramp, 70s rock band Status Quo, former lead singer of the band YES, Jon Anderson, as well as England’s Ska/Punk/Soul/Pop heroes – Madness.
The already super strong Bluesfest bill just keeps growing, with the two previous announcements including Santana, Jimmy Cliff, Iggy & The Stooges, Ben Harper, Steve Miller Band, Chris Isaak, Wilco and many more.
