IT was Bendigo’s go at hosting the ALWAYS LIVE Victorian Vibes free travelling pop-up music festival last Saturday, with keen locals and day trippers braving the inclement weather, turning out in their hundreds. The line-up featured several of Australia’s most anticipated emerging and already established artists – local teen prodigy Emma Gleeson, sultry Melbourne alt-pop-rock artist Queenie, Northeast Arnhem Land’s YolÅ‹u surf-rock purveyors King Stingray, and smooth-as-silk Sydney soulman Matt Corby.
