Concrete Playground

Scottish collective Camera Obscura make deliciously delicate whistful folk pop with notes of country and soul. Their 2006 album Lets Get Out Of This Country is the perfect recipe for a bad day; put it on your stereo and float away. The band have performed in Sydney a few times already, but seeing them outdoors under the shadows of the Hyde Park Barracks for Sydney Festival's Becks Festival Bar will be the perfect way to hear their music. With a beer in hand and the warm summer breeze on your back, you won't have a care in the world.

Before the show, make sure you grab a copy of their new record My Maudlin Career and familiarise yourself with some of their new songs. It will make singing-a-long at the show (you know you'll want to) a whole lot easier.

Special guest support is Slow Club (UK) and DJs Kate Jinx and Paul Gough
