PROGFEST is back in 2014 and this year our national headliner is the quirky prog outfit CLOSURE IN MOSCOW!
I’ve been a massive fan of the band ever since seeing them open for Coheed & Cambria back in 2008 – and whilst they’ve shifted gears with a new sound for this year’s ‘Pink Lemonade’ album, they remain one of the most proficient and exciting performers to come out of this country in a long while.
The various Progfest lineups in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney & Adelaide also feature a host of incredible talent, including the super-hot-right-now VOYAGER, TOEHIDER, BREAKING ORBIT, CALIGULA’S HORSE, HELM, ANUBIS and many more.
