Björk and Sinead Festival Rumours

The festival season is a few months away, and already the rumour bill is buzzing about who will headline some of the biggest events. If the word on the street is anything to go by, we could see some of the coolest female artists in the world gracing our shores early next year.
Björk has played some big festivals lately, and rumour has it she’ll be the headline act at Australia’s biggest, The Big Day Out. Could it be true? Fans must hope so, as the quirky Icelandic star hasn’t visited Australia in more than a decade.
Apparently Sinead O’Connor has had her heart set on playing the East Coast Blues and Roots Festival for ages, and 2008 may just be her year. Word is she’ll be one of the Byron Bay festival’s major draw cards next year. The coolest festival around is still eight months away, but early-bird tickets are already on sale.

4 opinions for Björk and Sinead Festival Rumours

I just can’t dig on either of these chicks — they both seem so overrated. Just not my style but I bet tons of people are thrilled with this news.

I know what you mean, they’re certainly acquired tastes. I really like Sinead O’Connor, but I find Bjork a little bit hit and miss. I loved “Oh So Quiet” and the soundtrack for “Dancer in the Dark,” but lately her music has felt very self indulgent. But you’re right - it’s all personal opinion and people will certainly flock to these shows.
