Hot off the trail of the critically acclaimed collaborative record with David Byrne, Brian Eno is throwing together some of his top choice bands to play this years Vivid Sydney Fest in, you guessed it, Sydney, Australia. The fest will take place at the Sydney Opera House (you know, that building that they always show in pictures of Sydney). The Eno-curated portion of this fest is titled Luminous, which is "an annual festival of music, debate, light and performance." So, not only will you be able to see some Eno-approved bands, but you will also get to see Eno's image/sound installation, 77 Million Paintings, as well as "public talks and spectacular light and art installations."
The event, which will take place May 28 - June 14, will include musical acts such as Battles, Ladytron, Jon Hopkins, Lee "Scratch" Perry, The Necks, and many more. For more info: http://vividsydney.com/luminous
