Seven years on from their glorious Golden Plains debut Built to Spill return to Australia as special guests for Melbourne’s inaugural Eighty-Six Festival plus headline shows in Sydney and Brisbane building on their enormous reputation for a transcendental live show.

The ever-evolving line-up of BTS will this time feature founding member, singer / guitarist Doug Martsch plus Melanie Radford (bass) and drummer Teresa Esguerra, the same line-up as featured on the band’s new album When the Wind Forgets Your Name.

"As Martsch would perform his wizardry on any given song, Radford and Esguerra would look across the stage at one another and, in a symbol of organic musical bliss, they’d let out screams or hysterics, and Doug every so often would glance a warm expression of his own, a sign of approval for these two outstanding musicians.” - Park Lifedc
