With word quickly spreading about Canberra’s inaugural New Year’s Eve Celebration, MISSION TO LAUNCH, organisers are excited to announce the first act to be raising the roof at this year’s party in Weston Park. It is none other than Australian dance powerhouse, Sneaky Sound System!
Sneaky Sound System has been touring the world this year, and is at the top of its party making game. Returning to Canberra for the first time in two and a half years, they will have the honour of bringing the party to its pinnacle in style, as they lead the countdown to the New Year at midnight.
Since they blasted on to the Australian music scene in 2006, Sneaky Sound System has dominated airwaves and dance floors around the country. Producing hits like ‘I Love It’, ‘Pictures’, and ‘UFO’, the group has won a bounty of awards including two ARIA wins out of a total of 13 nominations. Sneaky’s self titled debut album achieved a staggering three times platinum sales locally, while internationally the group has achieved success with the #1 UK club hit ‘It’s Not My Problem’, as well as the US dance airplay chart-topping collaboration with Dutch Superstar DJ Tiesto, ‘I Will Be Here’.
Returning in 2011 with a sharp, streamlined new look, a fresh sense of adventure and, most importantly, a thoroughly reinvigorated sound, Sneaky Sound System is once again set to rocket to the top of Australian music. Powerhouse singer Miss Connie and producer extraordinaire Black Angus have been working on their imminent third album, From Here To Anywhere, in hotel rooms and studios around the world since 2009. Out in Australia, the UK and Europe on October 7 through Modular/Universal, the record features strobing techno-pop lightning bolts, taken to new heights by a duo at the top of their game. The first single from the album, ‘We Love’, enjoyed national radio attention through Nova, Austereo and Hit List radio networks and spent five weeks in the ARIA club chart top 5, and the group’s electrifying new single, ‘Big’, with a video shot in Las Vegas, is set to be the radio anthem of the summer.
With Sneaky Sound System just the first of a whole heap of exciting acts to be announced on the bill for New Year’s Eve, Mission To Launch is set to shake-up Canberra like it’s never been shaken before. So strap yourself in and get ready to rock-it…the countdown to Mission To Launch has begun!
