THE WOMBATS
THE WOMBATS made their Splendour debut in 2008 with songs from their killer debut album 'A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation'. They return in 2015 with their third album 'Glitterbug', a triple j feature album that debuted at #2 on the ARIA charts, featuring the singles 'Greek Tragedy', 'Give Me A Try, and lead track 'Your Body Is A Weapon'.
Previous album 'This Modern Glitch' with its hit singles 'Tokyo' (Vampires and Wolves) and 'Jump Into The Fog' saw THE WOMBATS build on the initial success of their debut album as it also reached #2 on the ARIA album chart and achieving platinum sales. Thu Jul 23 - Metro City, Perth. WA
AZEALIA BANKS
Fresh from tearing up one of the most internet-breaking sets of Coachella, AZEALIA BANKS promises to deliver one of the most talked about performances of Splendour 2015 alongside some very special Official Splendour Sideshows! She grabbed the world's attention as one of the biggest artists to break through in 2012 with bangers like 'Liqourice', 'Van Vogue' and the Splendour favourite '212', and we've been watching her ever since. Her long-awaited debut album 'Broke with Expensive Taste' dropped last year and proved it was well worth the wait, with international critical acclaim and some of her boldest tracks to date!
Sun 26 July - Prince Bandroom, Melbourne

KITTY DAISY & LEWIS
Described as 'a gift to those of us who still believe in magic' (The Observer), London siblings Kitty, Daisy & Lewis Durham are awesomely talented songwriters and multi-instrumentalist musicians. They have sold over a quarter of a million albums worldwide, sold out headline tours, played Bestival five times and Glastonbury thrice, they've opened shows for some big names (hello Mark Ronson and Coldplay) and are set to take to the stage at this year's Fuji Rock Festival before they head to Australia.
Starting out young, they have inspired audiences and gathered an impressive fan base from Amy Winehouse and Eagles Of Death Metal to David Lynch. Their new album KITTY DAISY & LEWIS The Third is a sparkling analogue production, produced by Mick Jones of The Clash.
Each rotating on different instruments with a set that includes R&B, jazz, soul, blues, ska, country, rock 'n' roll and more, Kitty, Daisy & Lewis mix up genres to perfection! Tue 4 Aug - Governor Hotel, Adelaide
Wed 5 Aug - Rosemount Hotel, Perth

MARMOZETS
'British Rock Didn't Know How Much It Needed A Frontwoman Until Now' - Noisey. UK rockers MARMOZETS dropped their debut album 'The Weird And Wonderful' late last year and have been kicking goals ever since with rave reviews, a #2 Album Of The Year from Kerrang, #1 Album Of The Year and Best UK Band Of The Year form Big Cheese Magazine UK and of course their hook-fuelled track 'Move, Shake, Hide' is all over triple j.
After a year that included a closing night headline set at Glastonbury's BBC Introducing Stage and a bunch of other major festivals including Reading, Leeds, Download and Radio 1 Rocks - plus a support slot with fellow Splendour act Royal Blood - MARMOZETS are on their way and predicted as one of '10 New Artists To Watch in 2015' by Rolling Stone! You can watch them in July!
