Bluesfest is making a comeback in April 2022. Joining the lineup now are international legends like George Benson, Morcheeba, The Wailers, and more.
After being cancelled for two years in a row, Bluesfest is roaring back to life in 2022. And in a special pre-Christmas surprise, eight legendary international acts have been announced to join the lineup.
Heading to Byron Bay this coming April is the legendary guitarist George Benson, chillout icons Morcheeba, reggae royalty The Wailers, as well as the Marcus King Band, Amadou and Mariam, The War and Treaty, Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram, and Cory Henry.
George Benson is an artist that barely needs an introduction. The iconic guitarist is a multiple Grammy-winner and is sure to be one of Bluesfest’s biggest drawcards. Similarly, former Snarky Puppy member Cory Henry will bring his own virtuosic energy to the bill, accompanied by an all-star band.
Morcheeba is a bluesfest institution. Led by Skye Edwards, the band is set to dish up an experience filled with chillout anthem after anthem. The reggae dynasty that is The Wailers is set to hit the Bluesfest stage too, keeping the fire lit by Bob Marley all those years ago burning strong.
