Necessary but horribly named regional festival Groovin’ The Moo have announced their first round of acts for 2011. It’s pretty fantastic actually and from hip hop relics to indie upstarts the vibe is surprisingly diverse. How diverse you ask? Joining the regional extravaganza with dates in Bendigo, Townsville, Maitland, Canberra and Bunbury are local heroes Architecture In Helsinki, Cut Copy and Art Vs Science as well as an eclectic lineup of internationals including James Lavelle’s UNKLE, Smiths revivalists The Drums, genial quirky guy Darwin Deez and the creators of the most enduring party jam of all time, House of Pain. Something something jump around. .
