They will join the likes of Kiwi artists Drax Project, Gin Wigmore, Mitch James and Sir Dave Dobbyn, as well as newcomers like Daily J and Lady Shaka, on the Wellington Waterfront on March 19 next year.
Event director Andrew Tuck said they were happy with the blend of old favourites and "fresh new faces" in this year's lineup.
