-You may have noticed, whilst scanning through the lineup that Sarah Blasko is playing. According to her blog:

As Day Follows Night

Yes, this is the name of my new record… and it looks like it’s coming out on July 10th in Australia. I’m very excited to tell you this news because, believe me, I’m absolutely hopeless at keeping secrets! Phew, I feel better now… The first single, ‘All I Want’ will be out in a couple of weeks.

Other news that I’ve been keeping locked in the vault is that I’ll be playing one of my first shows after the album’s release at the Splendour In The Grass Festival in July.
