With just days to go until the first ever GOLDEN HOUR event takes to Bondi Beach, the festival has completed its lineup with the addition of two stellar Australian artists, as well as set times for punters to start planning their afternoon and evening.
Joining CROWDED HOUSE and THELMA PLUM at GOLDEN HOUR this coming Friday 20 February, are the brilliantly talented ADAM NEWLING and LUCIENNE.
Emerging pop/soul artist LUCIENNE made her debut in 2025 with her track 'The Same Death' and since then has wasted no time in wrapping Sydney audiences up in her charisma and sheer presence as a performer. For fans of artists including Jorja Smith and Cleo Sol, Lucienne is a fresh voice that is set to captivate when she sets the scene for GOLDEN HOUR this Friday.
One of Australia's leading voices in alternative/indie songwriting, ADAM NEWLING has been creating music that has been winning crowds over since his debut in 2021. His latest single 'Foxtrap' has broken open a beautiful new arc for Newling this year, one that is sure to be built on as we move further into 2026. A true natural on stage, whether he is commanding as a headliner or supporting a variety of acts including Skegss, Amy Shark and King Stingray, Newling is a wonderful addition to the GOLDEN HOUR fold.
"I couldn't believe it when I got the call up, it feels very special to be opening for a show like this." ADAM NEWLING
