Bluesfest Touring announces a return season of Bluesfest Byron Bay sideshows for March/April 2023!
Friday 31 March, 2023 ? Trusts Arena ? Auckland
?⚠️ JUST ANNOUNCED! ⚠️?
Big Freedia joins the already-stacked line-up of this live hip-hop and brass music event – a stunning once in a lifetime, jam-packed gig that is not to be missed!
? Adding a fresh flavour to an already impressive collective line-up of GZA, Talib Kweli and The Soul Rebels, is the addition of larger-than-life New Orleans rap artist, Big Freedia. Known as the Queen of Bounce and renowned for her infectious energy and personality, there is simply no one quite like Big Freedia, the ‘Queen Diva’!
?In addition to releasing her own critically acclaimed EPs, ‘3rd Ward Bounce’ (2018), ‘Louder’ (2020), and ‘Big Diva Energy’ (2021), Big Freedia has also appeared on numerous high-profile projects, including Beyoncé’s Grammy award-winning, ‘Formation’, and the recently released track coined the song of the summer, ‘Break My Soul’. Bringing her distinctive voice and signature catch-phrases to all her work, she also collaborated on Drake’s ‘Nice For What’, and has teamed up with pop starlets Lizzo, Kesha, and Charlie XCX to name but a few.
?Joining the loud and proud Big Freedia on this incredible line-up is hip-hop royalty - GZA aka the Genius from Wu-Tang Clan who always impresses with his cool, precise flow, and literate rhymes, and Talib Kweli from Black Star, one of the most lyrically-gifted, socially aware, and politically insightful rappers. Both cultural icons in the hip-hop world, and highly respected for their landmark solo work and influential co-acts, the collective rapping power of these three artists will raise the roof!
?Providing the solid backing to cement and bring together these unique collaborative performances for the collective is brass sensation from New Orleans, The Soul Rebels. Renowned for their almighty stage presence and numerous explosive collabs, the eight-member brass ensemble bring together the collective’s powerful sound to deliver a show like no other.
An opportunity to witness such a high calibre multi-talent performance such as this culturally significant show, will be a unique and special memory as each artist brings their own distinct vibe to the party.
