The all-new Beyond The C music festival line-up has just gone on sale with an astonishing 80s Oz Rock mob headlined by Icehouse.

Beyond The C recently announced the reformed Do Re Mi for their first shows since the late 80s will be part of the bill. Deborah Conway and Helen Carter have reformed their influential 80s alt-rock band with an all-female line-up.

Sunnyboys will also perform. They reformed in 2012 after a 21 year break and went on to perform for national audiences including their biggest audience every for A Day On The Green.
