Information
Doors: 8PM / Show: 9PM / 21+The Belair Lip Bombs are Maisie Everett ( Guitar & Vox ), Mike Bradvica ( Guitar ), Jimmy Droughton ( Bass ) and Liam De Bruin ( Drums ), four close friends from a coastal town in Victoria, Australia called Frankston.The band has really hit their stride recently with the release of their debut album Lush Life. The record is 10 tracks of evocative exploration; stories that run a gamut of longing, seeking new horizons and discovering new paths to satisfaction and self-fulfillment. It showcases the bands evolution and song writing abilities with striking indie arrangements and catchy hooks.The album is starting to catch the attention of worldwide tastemakers and the band is gearing up towards a breakout year in 2024.dustFormed against the backdrop of the pandemic in 2020, the project of Awabakal land / Newcastle-based dual guitarist-vocalists Gabriel Stove and Justin Teale, bassist Liam Smith, guitarist and saxophonist Adam Ridgway, and drummer Kye Cherry, dust offer an invigorating new take on Australian post-punk: progressive, catchy, and irresistible. Just as artistically motivated by the fragmented, free-genre steps of Yung Lean and Burial, merging experimental jazz and electronica into immediate post-punk, this idiosyncratic joining of the fringes comes together much like dusts roots in Newcastle. Since first emerging with their iteration of Australian post-punk on debut EP et cetera, etc, the group have continued to dominate. dusts industrially shaped rock, endemic to their steel city origins, has taken them out of this world: major continental tours across Australia, the UK and US supporting formative influences Slowdive, Interpol, Bloc Party, Protomartyr, and Militarie Gun, to stages with Hockey Dad, The Belair Lip Bombs, Armlock, Shady Nasty, and more. Industry alike clammer, word of mouth fever following them across un/official showcases at BIGSOUND, SXSW Austin and Sydney, The Great Escape to landing appearances at Laneway, Pitchfork Music Festival, London Calling as Monster Children firmly put it, once you experience dust, you will never be the same.
