Musicians from around Australia are invited to apply to perform at the annual Peats Ridge Sustainable Arts and Music Festival. Music acts will have an opportunity to play over New Years from Saturday 29 December to Tuesday 01 January 2013.

To apply, all you have to do is jump on the Peats Ridge website and fill out the submission form. Music submissions should also include a copy of your most recent CD/demo. Entries close on Thursday 2 August 2012.

The 2011 festival saw new acts; Husky, Oliver Tank and New Navy play alongside the likes of Gotye, Xavier Rudd, Salmonella Dub, Thundamentals and Hermitude to crowds of 10,000 plus Festival goers.

Over 200,000 extra music fans tuned in live via YouTube as the entire Festival was streamed for the very first time. The Festival streamed for 50 hours with over 40 exclusive interviews with bands and will be returning once again in 2012.

With over 1,000 applications for 2011, Peats Ridge is estimating another huge influx of applications, both undiscovered local talent and international acts.

With a focus on creating a total experience for all, Peats Ridge hosts a brilliant showcase of art installations, kooky themed venues, multimedia, theatre, dance, cabaret, comedy, giant trapeze, and much more, all winding along the riverbank and dotted throughout the event site.

A three day showcase of music, arts and culture to herald in the New Year, organisers are calling on all musicians, to submit their interest online www.peatsridgefestival.com.au by Thursday 2 August.
