Cornelius + Nice Biscuit | Tumbalong Nights

Closing out Tumbalong Nights for 2023, Japan’s genre-hopping genius, cult icon, Cornelius brings his transcendent live show to Vivid Sydney. And Brisbane 5-piece Nice Biscuit will take you on a trip with their psychedelic-leaning folk.

Often heralded as one of our most innovative producers and songwriters and regularly compared to the likes of Brian Eno, Brian Wilson and Beck, Cornelius has been a pioneer of contemporary rock and electronica since the ‘90s. Real name Keigo Oyamada, the Tokyo-born artist has also established himself as a must-see act who meticulously orchestrates a multi-sensory show of in-sync visuals, lights and music, backed by an all-star live band. 

"Going to a Cornelius show isn’t just about enjoying live music; it’s about taking in a distinctly unique audio and visual experience" - Billboard

Since winning triple j Unearthed’s Bigsound competition in 2017, Nice Biscuit has established that they’re among our tightest and most electric live acts. Pairing psych-rock with beautiful harmonies from lead singers Billie Star and Grace Cuell, as well matching outfits and choreographed dances, Nice Biscuit are sure to send off Tumbalong Nights with a mind-blowing bang.

“Nice Biscuit have to be one of our favourite discoveries of the last few years” - Pilerats
