All Tomorrow's Parties

Early in 2008, Australian concert promoters Feel Presents and UK promoters All Tomorrow's Parties joined forces to bring the classic albums concept, Don't Look Back, to Australia. A UK originated concept, Don't Look Back asks artists to perform a work from their catalogue that has proven itself timeless years after it's inception. In it's first season, Don't Look Back presented seminal works from Sonic Youth (Daydream Nation), Died Pretty (Doughboy Hollow) and Low (Things We Lost in the Fire) - among others - for what was a hugely successful debut enterprise. Later in 2008 Feel Presents and All Tomorrow's Paries formed a new company; ATP Australia Pty Ltd, with a view to bringing the All Tomorrow's Parties Festival to Australia.

Named after the Velvet Underground song and described as the "ultimate mix tape", All Tomorrow's Parties is a boutique festival that goes against the grain of the larger, more commercial music festivals. Each new All Tomorrow's Parties invites an artist or band to headline and then handpick their favourite performers to play at the festival.

For the inaugural Australian series of ATP events we are pleased to announce that arguably the most significant Australian export of the last twenty years Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, are to make their curating debut. The Bad Seeds intimate knowledge of all things Australian (music and otherwise) coupled with their innate sense of the weird and wonderful will - we are sure - make for a series of very unique events.
