MGMT ALL ‘SET’ TO TAKEOVER BYRON

THE JD SUMMER SET IS SOLD OUT!!!

Sydney, Australia – Monday, 21 February, 2011: With the blissful beach location, the majestic melodies of MGMT and the panache of Pond, the scene is truly set for the upcoming JD SUMMER SET in Byron Bay.

Last year’s THE JD SUMMER SET featuring Franz Ferdinand at Beach Hotel was one of the most talked about gigs of 2010, and it looks like history is set to repeat itself with tickets to this intimate affair now being SOLD OUT! Alas, procrastinators!

Those lucky enough to have snagged tickets will be treated to a full evening of good ol’ fashioned Jack Daniel’s hospitality with an outdoor BBQ (complete with Jack’s very own range of sauces!), a selection of specially mixed Jack Daniel’s cocktails and some impeccable beats from resident DJ Christo, of Big Day Out’s Lilyworld fame. Doors open at 6.00pm so make sure you get in early to partake in the full scope of the festivities and to secure your position to witness what is destined to be an epic set from headliners MGMT! Live support on the night comes from Pond, side-project of some of the guys from Tame Impala, who were hand-picked by MGMT to join them on their Australian tour and have a steadily growing buzz surrounding them.

Breaking onto the global scene out of Brooklyn, New York back in 2007, in just a few short years MGMT have firmly established themselves as one of the planet’s most sought-after, captivating and innovative bands. Still riding an ever-growing global wave of pandemonium since their sophomore album release Congratulations earlier last year, MGMT are heading to the most Eastern point of our fair country to play at the spectacular Beach Hotel on the foreshore of NSW’s surfing mecca.
