Involved in something new for a change this weekend at St Jerome’s Laneway Festival: Closing out the Silent Disco tent 10-11pm alongside the mighty JKash – come don some headphones and jump around if your about

A fair few decent indi acts will be in full swing at this one:

Hats off to all those who partied hard at our shows at 3 Bears on New Years and especially the Coconut Club crew rockin out on the final day of Southbound – special!

Memories:

Gearing up for a massive New Years @ 3 Bears / Dunsborough then onto Southbound with the extremely talented MC Amani

You can catch us throwing down @ Southbound:

Sunday Jan 2nd: 12-2 (Lounge Tent) + 5-6 (Coconut Club)
