Night Lovell | Northcote Theatre
Each artist carved out their moment, stacking energy on top of energy until Night Lovell closed the night with a performance that felt both heavy and cinematic. No matter where you stood in the venue, you could feel the pulse of the crowd, the low-end shaking the floor, and the collective rush of everyone locked into the same moment.
I See Stars | The Crowbar Review
Even with a jam packed setlist, we got more of an insight into the beginning of I See Stars, with how they first formed when Devin was just 11 years old and how money was not why they did this but for following their dreams and continuing to do what they love.
IC3PEAK | 170 RUSSELL
It warms me that even though the world outside, surrounding us and impeding on all my peers, in a tiny basement room like this, some strings and softly spoken words can be a respite. It’s safe to say that “Coming Home” has been on repeat in my earphones ever since that night.
Imminence | The Forum
What sets Imminence apart is that they’re not just a Metalcore band with a violin thrown in. The violin is the heart of their sound, the storm at the centre of the chaos.
Eddie Current Supression Ring | Fed Square
A gig that felt like a definitive re-debut for a classic Melbourne band who have been sorely missed, and appear to have lost nothing of what brought them their former glory.
Wunderhorse | The Forum
For a crowd of mostly 20-somethings who had been waiting almost a year, Wunderhorse rewarded every ounce of anticipation. They capture both the loneliness and the hope of youth, and make you feel less alone in the process.
The Wombats | Festival Hall
Tight, confident and consistently hilarious, The Wombats once again proved why they remain one of indie-pop’s most beloved live acts: masters of turning music, comedy and chaos into an unforgettable night.
