If you missed out on tix for Splendour In The Grass or just couldn't face the trip north to Byron, the good festival folks have got you covered.
Secret Sounds and Splendour have announced the biggest sideshow program in its history, with 23 bands and solo artists coming to play standalone gigs in Melbourne and Sydney, with many performing in Perth and a couple of Adelaide and Brisbane gigs as well.
Earlier announced sideshows from the likes of Gorillaz and The Strokes have already sold out, but new megastars dropping tours include Liam Gallagher, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Duke Dumont, Yungblud and way more.
Every act on the list below is coming to Melbourne, but given how concentrated the sideshows are in July, there are a few double ups and some potentially tough choices to make.
