After much wrangling into shape, the line-ups for each show have now been fixed, and are as follows:
Thursday 21 March – Dunedin Public Art Gallery, The Octagon, 7pm – 11pm
- Stephen Kilroy
- The Ladder is Part of the Pit
- Greg Malcolm
- Jeff Henderson / Hermione Johnson
Friday 22 March – Chicks Hotel, Port Chalmers, 8pm – 12am

Saturday 23 March – The Anteroom, Masonic Lodge, Port Chalmers, 1pm – 5pm

Saturday 23 March – Chicks Hotel, Port Chalmers, 8pm – 1am
- Black Yoghurt
- Foxtrot
- Gate

We're getting very excited about the shows - all strong line-ups as usual, culminating with the dancefloor madness double-bill of Murderbike and The Futurians on the final night. The Futurians brought the house down to close the last Dunedin Lines of Flight, and they are back to pulverise the audience once more!
Notice we aren't one of those annoying festivals which have multiple stages going at once, creating clashes when you want to see both bands at the same time. : )
We will post more in-depth information and web links on each performer/act in the next couple of weeks, so keep checking the blog and spread the word.

Hi all,
We will be posting the individual line-ups for each of the four shows in the next few days, so keep checking the blog. Organisation is going well, and the festival promises to be as amazing as ever!
We have had a slight change to the lineup - Our Love Will Destroy the World (Campbell Kneale) has sadly had to cancel. However, to replace him we have not one but two acts - the wonderful otherworldy sounds of Omit, and voodoo art/pop/soundscapist Sam Hamilton. We had 16 acts, but when we heard Omit could play, there was no choice but to expand the programme. : )
For all out-of-towners, make sure you book your flights asap - we are part of the Dunedin Fringe Festival so there are a lot of people descending on Dunedin for the fortnight!

We are excited to add the following acts to the line-ups:
- All Seeing Hand -Wellington drums and turntable destroyers
- Stephen Kilroy - legendary Dunedin solo guitarist
- Black Yoghurt - Sefton Bastardwisher's solo project
- Magnetic Field Data - Charlotte and Ali's suspended speaker noise sculpture
One-line descriptions of the other acts could be:
- Our Love Will Destroy the World - Campbell Kneale's wondrous noise project - ex Birchville Cat Motel
- Alastair Galbraith - musical alchemical genius - glass harmonium plus more.
- The Futurians - Dunedin noise/sci-fi/sludge/dance/destructo rock juggernaut
- Greg Malcolm - acoustic guitarist inventor/improviser
- Jeff Henderson/Hermione Johnson - saxophone and prepared piano beauty
- Gate - Michael Morley (Dead C) guitar drone universe
- Eye - free/psych/noise rock improvisers
- Foxtrot - solo female voice and loops
- Bruce Russell/Peter Wright - (more Dead C representation) duelling droning guitars
- Murderbike - synth dance beats
- The Ladder is Part of the Pit - gentle violin/synth/guitar improv
- Memory Burn - cracked electronics
So that is the complete line-up - 4 shows, 4 acts per show. The line-ups for each show will be confirmed closer to the time. It promises to be yet another wonderful event, following on from the mini-Lines of Flight held in Christchurch last September. Book your tickets from round the world now!!!!

Lines of Flight 2013!!!!
The legendary Dunedin experimental music festival Lines of Flight returns in 2013 with another wonderfully diverse line-up of sonic mind-expansion.
The first Lines of Flight festival was held over two days in October 2000, as part of the Dunedin Fringe festival. Held biennially ever since, it features the cream of New Zealand’s experimental/improvised/free noise music and has become a focal point for the national community to come together, perform and connect. Internationally recognised and known for their strong lineups, shows in recent years have included audience members who have flown round the world to attend.
Film has always been a strong component of Lines of Flight festivals, and many of the performers will have film accompaniment to their music.
Performers will include Our Love Will Destroy the World, Alastair Galbraith, The Futurians, Greg Malcolm, Jeff Henderson/Hermione Johnson, Gate, All Seeing Hand, Bruce Russell/Peter Wright, Eye, Foxtrot, Murderbike, The Ladder is Part of the Pit, Memory Burn, and more.
Thursday 21 March – Dunedin Public Art Gallery, 7pm – 11pm
Friday 22 March – Chicks Hotel Port Chalmers, 8pm – 12am
Saturday 23 March – The Anteroom, Masonic Lodge Port Chalmers, 1pm – 5pm
