When The Plot recently dropped the set times, we told you we were keeping a slot warm for one talented artist. Well, thank you all kindly for your applications but the position has been filled, and we couldn't be happier. Joining the super-stacked, super-diverse line-up for the Greater Western Sydney festival will be Sydney's FROYO. A production outfit that evolved into an '80s loving quartet that now serves up sweet spoonful of synthpop, FROYO was also one of the finalists in our Play School remix competition earlier this year (shortly after the group celebrated their third anniversary). They've been working on more pastel-shaded tunes and last month teased there's a new song "coming verrrrrry soon."

Following in the footsteps of Sampa The Great, FROYO will open up The Plot main stage, warming up for massive sets from Montaigne, The Bennies, Luca Brasi, Tired Lion, Tash Sultana and The Belligerents. Elsewhere you'll catch A.B. Original, Allday, Vera Blue, Amy Shark, Alex Lahey, and many, MANY more. Re-visit the festival details below and head on over to the ThePlot.co for ticket info.

The triple j Unearthed slot on the lineup for Sydney’s The Plot festival has been announced, with local outfit FROYO revealed as this year’s lucky winners.

The synth-pop four-piece will join the already stacked 2016 lineup, which features the likes of Allday, Alex Lahey, A.B. Original, Elizabeth Rose, Japanese Wallpaper, Montaigne, Paces, Vera Blue, Nicole Millar, Tash Sultana and Tired Lion.

FROYO have been nabbing rave reviews for their tracks on triple j’s Unearthed website for some time, and also made it to the finals of the radio station’s Play School remix competition.

The Plot 2016 is set to take place in two weeks time at Parramatta Park. Catch the set times, full lineup and ticketing deets below.

Triple j’s Play School remix competition has received widespread attention, and confusingly even a little bit of controversy, but after trawling through some 600 remixes, the judging panel has selected their five finalists.

If your memory’s a bit foggy, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the beloved children’s television staple (yes, can you believe it? 50 years!), triple j tasked their Unearthed citizens with remixing the iconic theme tune.

The stems to ‘There’s A Bear In There’ were available to download and producers, songwriters, bands, emcees, and everything in between were free to do whatever they pleased with them, the more creative the better.

triple j’s judges have now narrowed the list down to just five, each of which “bring something inventive and distinctive to the table”. You can check a few out below, but we must say we have a soft spot for Froyo’s New Wave-esque take on the song.
