Dijon makes his Australian debut

Dijon is one of the most exciting international bookings.

His albums Absolutely and Baby have helped establish his reputation for music that feels simultaneously intimate and unconventional.

His Meredith appearance will mark his first Australian performance.

For listeners interested in contemporary alternative R&B and experimental pop, Dijon is one of the standout artists on the programme.

underscores and Fcukers represent new electronic music

underscores brings another particularly interesting sound.

The American producer and songwriter combines hyperpop, alternative rock, electronic music and experimental production.

Her music reflects a generation of artists who no longer feel particularly restricted by traditional genre boundaries.

Fcukers provide another contemporary electronic booking.

The New York duo have developed a reputation for their energetic combination of dance music, indie and club influences.

Their appearance alongside DJ Seinfeld and Marcellus Pittman gives Meredith a substantial electronic component.

Australian artists have a major presence

Meredith isn’t simply focused on international performers.

Hiatus Kaiyote are among Australia’s most internationally recognised contemporary soul and experimental R&B groups.

Eddy Current Suppression Ring bring their distinctive garage-rock sound.

Killing Heidi represent another important chapter of Australian alternative rock history.

That variety has always been part of Meredith’s identity.

The festival aims to introduce audiences to music they might not normally seek out themselves.

What makes Meredith different?

One of Meredith’s most distinctive features is its single-stage format.

Unlike festivals with several stages operating simultaneously, Meredith places its entire musical programme on one stage.

That means there are no competing headline performances.

Everyone experiences the same sequence of artists, regardless of their preferred genre.

The festival also has a strong reputation for its independent identity and dedicated audience.
