Cypress Hill confirm Coaster Festival

Posted in Festivals, News, Tours with tags , on May 17, 2010 by keelykov

The cat is out of the bag, Cypress Hill have announced they will be playing Coaster Festival while on their Australian tour in late September.

With over 18 million albums sold worldwide, the Los Angeles trio of rappers B –Real, Sen Dog and producer DJ Muggs have continued to push rap’s boundaries since their inception in the early 90s.

With their eponymous debut album in 1991, B –Real and Sen Dog established themselves as one of rap’s most potent duos. Their creative phrasing, distinctive voices and graphic subject matter, coupled with DJ Muggs’ atmospheric, piercing and dusty beats, propelled the trio to international superstar status.

In 2010 Cypress Hill will release their 8th studio album, ‘Rise Up’ and to support the release will bring their legendary live show to Australia for a national tour and to headline the Coaster Festival at Gosford, on the NSW Central Coast.

Tickets for the tour go on sale June 3rd, with coaster festival tickets set for a June 1st release.

Check them out at one of the following venues:

Thurs 23rd Sept            PalaceTheatre                        Melbourne                 VIC
Fri 24th Sept                 Enmore Theatre                     Sydney                        NSW

Wed 29th Sept             Metro City                             Perth                              WA

Lost In The Rumours: Cypress Hill for Coaster?

Posted in Festivals, News, Tours with tags , on May 5, 2010 by keelykov

Earlier this week, Faster Louder reported B-Real spilt the beans about Cypress Hill heading to Australia in September to tour their new record, Rise Up.

In an interview with the site, B-Real said: “We look forward to actually coming down to Australia in September and rockin.”

Though no official dates were given, there has since been speculation that the hip-hop royalty would be hitting our shores to be part of Parklife festival. But here at Lost in Suburbia, we have heard from a very reliable source that it’s instead Gosford’s very own Coaster Festival that will be bringing the boys down under.

With official announcement in three weeks time, we’ll see if this pans out, but my money is on Coaster.
