AMY SHARK

Already well-established as one of Australia’s premier pop successes, Amy Shark enters a new era of artistry – one built on a foundation of inner peace and fulfillment. Don’t let the idea of peace fool you however, this new chapter for Amy Shark is one marked by fresh and powerful turbo-pop; a creative mode the acclaimed songwriter and performer is excited to share with her fans and newcomers alike.

Since her emergence onto the national conscience with her now 6x Platinum single ‘Adore’ back in 2016, the trajectory Amy Shark has been on has seen her evolve from a unique new presence in an Australian indie-pop realm that was very much in a period flux; to becoming one of the country’s most recognisable voices taking the genre forward. And in the years that followed the ground-breaking release of ‘Adore’, Amy Shark continued to prove powerhouse potential.

BABY ANIMALS

It has been 30 years since one of Australia’s most revered rock bands, Baby Animals, burst onto the scene with the release of their 8x Platinum, ARIA Award winning, self-titled debut album, featuring iconic hits ‘Rush You’, ‘Early Warning’, ‘Painless’ and ‘One Word’. The band was touring with Van Halen in the US when they heard the album had topped the charts, ‘Baby Animals’ spending six weeks at number one in Australia and keeping Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’ out of top spot. The album went eight times platinum and won three ARIA Awards – Best Album, Best Debut Album and Best Debut Single. It was also declared one of the Top 25 albums of 1992 in UK rock bible Kerrang!, and Baby Animals performed ‘Painless’ on Late Night With David Letterman. They later appeared in The 100 Best Australian Albums, and Suze DeMarchi was also featured in the book Rock Chicks, The Hottest Female Rockers from the 1960s to Now.

MARK SEYMOUR & THE UNDERTOW

Mark Seymour is internationally regarded as one of Australia's best singer / songwriters. Since making his name as the lead singer of Hunters and Collectors, Mark has enjoyed a stellar career as a singer and acoustic guitarist. As well as 13 Hunters and Collectors albums, Mark has released eight further albums. Mark Seymour is one of our finest songwriters, capturing our stories of love, loss, human courage and achievement with a stamp of raw honesty and emotional power. He continues to search for the emotional truth in a song.

The Seymour band (AKA “The Undertow”), has enjoyed a solid lineup consisting of ex-Horsehead guitar player and producer Cameron McKenzie, ex-Badloves bass player John Favaro and this united band effort still has Seymour at the songwriting helm.

VOYAGER

Since their formation, Perth, Australia’s Voyager have fearlessly defied any genre norms, boundaries and regulations thrust upon them. They embrace pop; employ a keytar on stage, and bring forward a positive, uplifting feeling to their riff-laden music, running head-first into the endless parade of heavy bands who see the world in a darker light.

Voyager are renowned for shattering expectations and their resilience and determination is second to none. A band that has toured the world many times over and built an extremely loyal fanbase, the tables are about to turn for a band that has never been deterred in the face of adversity. Voyager’s music has had a contagious impact around the world, and recently represented Australia in the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest.

SOUTH SUMMIT

Following on from a year that saw them named as “indie role models for reconciliation”, as well as triple j’s 2022 “ones to watch”, South Summit have well and truly surpassed the expectations placed upon them. The unassuming indie-rockers have made a name for themselves across Australia, with a nomination for triple j Unearthed ‘Artist of The Year’, alongside landing #4 Most Played on the station, the icing on the cake of last year’s accolades.

Released in January 2022, sophomore EP 'Creatures' provides South Summit the opportunity to bookend this formative chapter of their story, with a culminating body of work pulling inspiration from the challenges and adversity they’ve faced & overcome in the year preceding. The band toured the release to sold out shows across the country earlier this year and have immediately turned their attention back to new music with infectious new single ‘Just Like You’ added to triple j rotation.

PRISCILLA

PRISCILLA are an alt-pop act from Boorloo/Perth that presents thoughtful lyrics, shimmering production, and soaring vocals in an exhibition of queer joy. Their latest offering Lose Control extends a synth-heavy hymn of love, acceptance, and self-expression (thanks, Wonderland Mag). This same energy translates to their live performances and welcomes you into their world filled with heart and inclusivity.

A live PRISCILLA performance has enough sparkle to sweep you off your feet, enough softness to embrace vulnerability and a sense of fun that will keep you dancing through the night. Step into the PRISCILLA universe. They might just become your next obsession, with one concertgoer notably declaring during a show, “I look genuinely in love, and that’s because I am.”
