Nevereverland Tickets

The gypsy caravan of enlightenment that is the NEVEREVERLAND festival is set to sweep our wide brown land again this December. 2007 saw NEVEREVERLAND's ecstatic inauguration, headlined by seminal dance music androids Daft Punk. This year, to coincide with the 10 year anniversary of renowned Australian independent record label Modular, NEVEREVERLAND is proud to be throwing all but the entire Modular roster plus some likeminded spirits onto the bus for a raucous celebration of a decade of decadence and dance.

The Presets, Klaxons, Hercules & Love Affair, Cut Copy, Whitest Boy Alive, Ladyhawke, The Bumblebeez, Muscles, Van She, Tame Impala, The Bang Gang Deejays, AJAX, The Lost Valentinos, Mission Control, Temper Trap, Canyons, Pepperoni, Andee Van Damage and Bag Raiders are the first names to be announced to take part in this, the second coming of NEVEREVERLAND.

NEVEREVERLAND 2007 was, to many people, the pinnacle of their life. Daft Punk had never toured Australia before, and it wasn't looking all that likely they ever would. NEVEREVERLAND saw their first and potentially last ever trip to our shores, and the shows were a blindingly euphoric experience for all lucky enough to grab tickets.

So how do you even begin to attempt to follow up and surpass such an event? Well, you don't. But in 1998 Modular Recordings was born, a label that in the time since has gone on to become arguably the most influential Australian independent record label of the last 5000 years, one described by the NME as the "coolest label on the planet". To celebrate 10 years of stayin alive, this years NEVEREVERLAND festival is the official birthday party, with a swathe of the labels biggest and best acts of the last decade on show.

The Presets are pretty well on top of the world right now following on from the 6 ARIA swindle, and they'll be down from cloud 9 to play their first trans-Australian jaunt since May as part of NEVEREVERLAND.

Likewise, ARIA nominees Cut Copy will cross the country for the first time since May, so busy they've been converting the masses across the US and Europe. Their exceptional 2nd album In Ghost Colours has earned them praise and adoration from Minnesota to Malmo, and they seem to have forgotten Australia in the process. Until NEVEREVERLAND.

Klaxons will emerge from the deep, cavernous abyss that is their recording studio where they've spent the last few months hidden away putting the finishing touches on record #2, especially to showcase some of this much awaited new guff and to appear at NEVEREVERLAND, their first time in Australia since October of last year.

For Hercules And Love Affair, NEVEREVERLAND marks their first visit to Australia, and although not a Modular act, they're an act perfectly in fitting with the joyous party vibes expected.

Whitest Boy Alive likewise have never before ventured to our shores, and having released their debut album Dreams on Modular UK in 2007 we're elated to welcome them to the bill.

As a gift to those coming to celebrate the 10 years in bizness with us, every ticket holder will receive a Modular birthday sampler featuring the highs and lows of 10 years at sea.*

NEVEREVERLAND is Modular's 10th birthday party, and EVERYONE is invited. Even you, Ben Butler.
