The Airlie Beach Festival of Music has been keeping this news caged up for weeks, but finally it is free to run wild – The Animals are set to take to the stage at the 10th anniversary festival from November 4-6 this year.
The infamous UK band are known for their greatest hits including House Of The Rising Sun, We Gotta Get Out Of This Place, Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood, Bring It On Home To Me, Don’t Bring Me Down, It’s My Life and more.
Two original band members, John Steel and Mickey Gallagher, will feature alongside new additions Danny Handley and Bobby Ruiz in celebrating a decade of bringing live music to the heart of the Great Barrier Reef.
Also announced in the latest reveal, Aussie legends Eskimo Joe, known for their iconic tracks Black Fingernails, Red Wine and Foreign Land.
Rick Price, Lloyd Spiegel, Lily and King, Innocent Eve, Lash 78 and Mardi Wilson, also join previously announced main stage acts including Ben Lee, Rogue Traders, the Badloves, Bill Chambers and Mi-Sex.
Festival founder, Gavin Butlin, said he was thrilled to make this second line-up announcement and honoured to welcome such high calibre acts.
“It’s been hard keeping a lid on this one while the details have been finalised but now that the cat’s out of the bag so to speak, we’re expecting to see a big surge in ticket sales,” he said.
