Santogold and more added to Falls Festival

The Falls Music and Arts and Southbound Festivals have pulled another stack of golden musical rabbits out their hats for the third official line-up announcement.

Brooklyn’s sassiest lady of bling Santogold will be joining fellow lady-of–the-sass, Sharon Jones and her Dap Kings, to make sure you’re shaking your thang right into the New Year. Keeping up with the ladies (at his own pace) will be bluegrass legend CW Stoneking & The Primitive Horn Orchestra, whilst local beat breakers Blue King Brown will be bringing their infectious mash of world music to the stage.
