Three of her tunes landed on the Triple J Hottest 100 for 2020, including a cover of Lady Marmalade at number 78, You & I at number 44, and Hyperfine at number 7.

Spacey Jane.

The band’s second album 14 Steps to a Better You, released in July last year, reached number one on the ARIA Album Charts and landed the group – fronted by brothers Oli and Louis Leimbach – five spots in the Triple J Hottest 100 for 2020.

Brisbane-based musician and rapper Mallrat will also perform on the Saturday night, along with Sydney-based hip-hop musician Hooligan Hefs.

Single concert and weekend tickets will be available.
