Title: Win a 6 Person Summer Sounds Festival Pod To See Ball Park Music In Melbourne. Post by: culturebird on Thursday 25 February 2021, 07:08:35 am It's been a rough old ride for Melbourne during this pandemic, but with both fingers and legs crossed, next week's Summer Sounds Festival's Melbourne programme will go ahead at Sidney Myer Music Bowl (25-27 February, 3-4 March).
Ball Park Music, who recently placed #4 on triple j's Hottest 100 for their epic ear worm 'Cherub', will be part of the Summer Sounds action. Band member Dean Hanson fondly recalls the news of 'Cherub''s ascent over the January weekend, feeling validated with the risks he and the band took with that song. "It was reaffirming, more than anything," he says. "I can remember the day 'Spark Up!' came out was literally the day that all of the news was like, 'the world is going into lockdown'. We had to make some serious decisions about whether to roll the album out like we normally would have. "No one really knew what the right answer was, but we went full-steam ahead. The success of 'Cherub' made us all think that we'd really made the right decision there. "It's honestly hard to comprehend just how many votes that song would have gotten in order to get that spot. I don't understand how it happened at all, but I'm so glad it did." Joining BPM at Summer Sounds Festival will be Thelma Plum (who performed at the 2020 AFL Grand Final) and 2020 Australian Music Prize finalist Alice Ivy. Here's your chance to win a six-person pod (valued at $600) to witness Ball Park Music, Thelma Plum and Alice Ivy live and in the flesh at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl on 11 March.
