Blood Orange, the New York-based artist responsible for one of 2016’s biggest triumphs inFreetown Sound, will play a single headline show in Australia next year… and Sydney fans are the lucky beneficiaries.

The artist otherwise known as Dev Hynes has already been locked in to headline Melbourne’s Sugar Mountain festival, but the sideshow date will be welcomed by east coast ‘Dev’-otees (soz).

Hynes will bring his full band Down Under to recreate the all-star record, which features vocals fromDebbie Harry, Nelly Furtado, Carly Rae Jepsen and Empress Of.
