Confirmed for the prestigious Sunday midday performance this year are the phenomenal Scala & Kolacny Brothers, comprising the two Kolacny brothers, Steven and Stijn and Scala, an all-girl 26-piece choir.

This visually stunning and sonically breathtaking collective have been a cult success since they started releasing albums in 2002. Drawing inspiration from modern pop, dance, rock and even metal, Scala, under the tutorage of conductor Stijn Kolacny and arranger and pianist Steven Kolacny, have produced beautiful re-workings of hits from Metallica, Bjork, U2, Nirvana, Kylie Minogue, Depeche Mode and German industrial metal band Rammstein. However it’s their haunting cover of Radiohead’s Creep that has catapulted them into the mainstream consciousness. 

Featuring in the trailer for Oscar winning film The Social Network – their rendition became a viral sensation notching up over 250 million views worldwide.  

For Latitude, their performance on Sunday at midday will be a spellbinding show and the perfect way to ease your way into the day’s festivities. Let their angelic voices sooth the hangovers and transport you to another world.
