A Childish Gambino Splendour In The Grass 2014 sideshow has been announced.
Just as the US rapper was a late addition to the Splendour 2014 lineup, the news of Childish Gambino’s accompanying headline sideshow arrives follows the huge list of Splendour 2014 sideshow announcements earlier this week.
Already headed to Australia as part of the 80+ strong lineup of the three-day music festival this July, where Tone Deaf picked him as one of 17 acts you simply don’t want to miss, Childish Gambino has been locked in for a special one-off performance at Big Top Luna Park in Sydney on Sunday 27th July, presented by Live Nation.
UPDATE 21/05/14: This show has since been upgraded to Hordern Pavilion. Head here for the full details.
Tickets for the Big Top Sydney show go on sale at 10am this Monday 12th May. Niche and My Live Nation members can be amongst the first to secure tickets during the pre-sale beginning midday this Friday, May 9. Become a member at www.nicheproductions.com.au and/or www.livenation.com.au.
The hip hop alias of actor and writer Donald Glover, Childish Gambino released his debut album Camp to wide acclaim in 2011, following up late last year with the release of his second studio effort, Because The Internet. Home to 19 tracks including sublime tunes ‘3005’ and ‘Sweatpants’, the album debuted at #7 on the Billboard Top 200 and hit the Top 40 ARIA chart in Australia.
Matching a unique blend of genres with his lyrical prowess, Childish Gambino has swiftly risen from a viral cult following to a mega sensation, a status expounded by his thrilling live show. Glover last delivered his show Down Under as part of the Big Day Out 2013 lineup and following a sold out Summer Tour, his Sydney show this July will be the only chance to catch him aside from at the sold out Splendour In The Grass.
