Beyond The Valley returns for 2018 with The Kooks

Deck yourself out in the best festival gear, find your tent and start packing the car – Beyond The Valley is back again for round five! Running over the New Year’s weekend, Lardner Park will be a real musical paradise.
The first taste of the forthcoming line-up announce is iconic UK band The Kooks! The four piece has enjoyed a steady ascent since their now five-times platinum unstoppable 2006 debut ‘Inside In/Inside Out’. A new wave of young fans has seen them since amass over one billion streams and head out on a number of sold out world tours. 2018 has already seen them support rock legends The Rolling Stones and headline the main stage at the renowned Reading & Leeds Festival before they continue to tour the world on their way down to Australia in support of their new album ‘Let’s Go Sunshine’.
The Kooks latest album, Let’s Go Sunshine is being touted as their best – a record unbound by genre, merging retro funk, dream pop, epic glam, chamber balladry and more. Armed with what is sure to be the guitar pop album of 2018 and a back catalogue of pure indie gold, The Kooks will take BTV into the stratosphere.
As for the rest of the lineup, this is due to drop later this month and it’s rumoured to be the best one yet.
Taking place from the 28th of December 2018, through to the very early hours of January 1st 2019, Beyond The Valley happens amongst the green and majestic rolling hills of its permanent home at Lardner Park, Lardner – just 90 mins drive outside Melbourne.
