FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS Main StageIn 2017, Summersault welcomes some of the best recording artists in Australia!

9pm Headlining Summersault 2017 is Sneaky Sound System – It was back in 2004 when Miss Connie and Black Angus started making beautiful music together. A series of singles at first then, in 2006, their self-titled, 3 x platinum debut album. Spearheaded by a spectacular salvo of chart topping hits – UFO, Pictures and I Love It – Sneaky Sound System won ARIA Awards for Breakthrough Artist and Best Dance Release, the first of 14 nominations to-date. They are a powerhouse of dance floor hits and will get you moving – be sure NOT to miss their Summersault performance at 9pm!

8pm Nathaniel Willemse, often known simply as Nathaniel, is an Australian singer and songwriter most notable for finishing sixth on the fourth series of The X Factor Australia. In 2013, he signed a recording contract with DNA Songs' label through Sony Music Australia, and released the single "You", which peaked at number four on the ARIA Singles Chart. Nathaniel forged his own sound; a synthesis of R&B, pop, funk, and rock, with an innate sophistication and understated emotional power. His debut single 'You' is more than the sum of its parts. Mid tempo swagger, earworm hook and a falsetto made out of crystal, it serves up all of Nathaniel's strengths as a performer and writer. We look forward to seeing his swagger at 8pm on the main stage at Summersault 2017.

7pm Rollingstone Magazine described his tunes as an "undeniable groove... brazen & Brash, delivered with a joyous abandon and reckless intent” .... Summersault 2017 are beyond excited to announce the ever brilliant Ash Grunwald -He’s a Blues & Roots ARIA award winning artist... His style of blues is gritty and loud – and he certainly packs extra grunt! He’ll fill your ears with the energy for action and he'll be taking over the main stage at 7pm! 

6pm If you’ve ever even had at least one foot on the dance floor.... you will have heard Zoë Badwi.... This powerhouse dance pop-diva will burst onto the Summersault 2017 stage at 6pm with her string of ARIA dance chart busting hits including – “Release Me” and “Freefallin”. To say that we’re only a little excited would be a drastic understatement – we’re like, ALOT excited.

5pm One part power pop, one part melodic folk, Chris Watts tunes are full of infectious chords, robust rhythms and soaring vocals. And the best bit... he's heading to Summersault 2017...

4pm A child of a musical household, a part of Jade Alice’s time growing up was on tour with her Mum and Dad as they played Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid (Frida) Lyngstad in ABBA tribute band, BABBA. When not on tour, her father would play the piano around the house and baby Jade would sing gibberish back, singing before she could even talk. Performing and writing songs from a very young age, Jade was involved in musical theatre productions and later on in her high school years, began to collaborate and perform with other musicians. Her achievements include being crowned the winner of the 2015 Melbourne Music Bank competition, a competition designed to kickstart a musician’s career in the music industry and now she’s on route to Summersault – kick starting the 2017 Main Stage program
