After much demand, the Falls Festival has dropped its FIRST massive bombshell – get ready, inhale a deep breath, and take a seat.

Childish Gambino is coming back to Australia. EEEEEEEP!

That’s right folks, after appearing at the Listen Out Festival in 2015, Gambino a.k.a Donald Glover is making his way down under to knock our socks off.

Not only is he coming back to Australia, but hopefully we’ll be hearing of his mysterious new album Pharos, that everyone seems to be talking about- since the release of his West Coast shows in the US.

Gambino promised his fans that a “full album experience” would soon become available via the link pharos.earth which he tweeted on June 18th 2016.

We’ve all been waiting for Gambino to release some new tunes since his last LP Kauai in 2014, which was a game-changer.

The fest have also given us a date for the full lineup announcement: Tuesday 23rd of August. With Gambino on board, who knows who could follow.
