Pambula Beach festival Wanderer has added a number of recognised names to its 2023 lineup. Sampa the Great tops the final lineup announcement, with the Zambian/Motswana (via Australia) hip hop artist charting a course for New South Wales’ Sapphire Coast on the back of her excellent 2022 LP, As Above, So Below.

Visionary artist and vocalist Lonnie Holley – whose new album, Oh Me Oh My, features everyone from Moor Mother and Michael Stipe to Bon Iver and Sharon Van Etten – is also making the trip to Wanderer. Holley and Sampa are both on the program for the Art Gallery of NSW’s inaugural Volume Festival, which runs from Friday, 22nd September to Sunday, 8th October.
