MONA FOMA 2012
Hobart's MONA FOMA returns this year with a line-up that's being described as troubadours of the weird, world-famous and never-heard-before music, dance, theatre, visual art, and sound. Curated by Violent Femmes bassist Brian Ritchie in conjunction with the Museum of Old and New Art, the Festival Of Music & Art affectionately known as MOFO is now in its fourth year.
This year PJ Harvey will front the line-up with her thought-provoking songs off her current album Let England Shake, as well as pieces from her previous albums.
Other MOFO favourites will be returning such as BalletLab, Gabriella Smart, IHOS, and Robin Fox, along with a bunch of MOFO newcomers who promise everything from sexy math on a giant screen, to German gospel, nude tours of MONA, and bagpipes.
MONA FOMA will take place between 13 - 21 January 2012. NB: While certain events - such as PJ Harvey and Girl Talk - are being ticketed separately to the rest of the festival, others - Dresden Dolls, Amiina, tUnE-yArDs and loads more - are only available to holders of the relevant Day Pass ($25 each) or the four-day Festival Pass ($50).
