Caravana Sun set to headline Summer Escape Festival

Fresh from an explosive performance at this year’s Byron Bay Blues Festival, Sydney/Byron Bay collective Caravana Sun will be headlining their own curated, all-ages Summer Escape Festival at Sunshine Coast’s NightQuarter on Saturday 3 September.

They will be playing tracks from their newly released 10 track album Burning Palms, which was written and recorded within the past two years.

It’s an album that sees the band return to their roots and find appreciation in nature as it was recorded in a secluded space deep in the heart of the Blue Mountains, NSW.

Produced by Caravana Sun, and mixed by Andy Lawson at Debaser Studio, Perth with additional mixing and engineered by Ian Pritchett.

They’ve always been known for the raw energy of their live shows.

From the huge crowd singalongs to the quiet, soulful heart moments, and sun-drenched reggae to sweeping synth indie groove, they always keep their focus on the connection to their audience.

“Our faith in live music and artists drove us to putting on Summer Escape Fest,“ Caravana Sun’s Ant Beard said.

“Over the past two years, we felt the magnitude of what people being together, singing and dancing really means to us.

“We knew we had to create something aside from our band that would represent and authentically serve the communities that have truly been the lifeblood of Caravana Sun for over 10 years.

“We’ve put together our favourite bands on one stage to truly celebrate live music to an all ages crowd.

“Summer Escape fest truly embodies that inspiring awe that leaves all music loving Australians proud to come together and celebrate, with some big euphoric sing-alongs and infectious dance moves.“
