Saturday, 1 June 2024 7:00 PM
The Vandastruts are a four piece rock and roll band based in the south of Sydney and north of Wollongong, they are made up of twins Kane and Tye Hines, Kayne Micallef and Will Caniles with ages ranging from 22 to 25, They are heavily influenced by old records dating back to the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s with the likes of blues, rock and grunge.
TOMMY GUN: Melding together extroverted artistry with introspective tones, TOMMY GUN is the embodiment of Sydney’s coastal beaches. And if you believe in auras, his is honeyed gold. For those craving summer nostalgia, this band is the sun setting on the horizon, signalling the start of the show - and what a show it will be! Having toured the country fronting coastal crusaders The Kava Kings and also alongside Nathan Cavaleri, TOMMY GUN now leads a five-piece band to pure indie glory that has shared the stage with the likes of Thelma Plum, King Stingray and Winston Surfshirt.
His last single played on Triple J's Home and Hosed and both of his recent film clips granted a spot on ABC’s Rage. Their debut album is guided through Tommy’s unique voice with sing-a-long melodies and lead guitar ear-worms that induce a heart-warming, nostalgic and carefree feeling. TOMMY GUN takes you on a journey through heartbreak, introspection, and self-discovery with a body of work that is brimming with enthusiasm, musicianship and the right amount of attitude. Recorded/ Mixed/ Mastered by George Georgiadis (Gang of Youths, Matt Corby, Last Dinosaurs and Jack River) this Sydney super-group will be breathing fresh life into the Australian live music scene, captivating old and new fans.
Jordan Kenny Ever-beloved angel of androgyny, Jordan Kenny, awakens a playful and high-spirited entity. Transcending the listener with a timeless familiarity and a rich sonic vision, his soulful reflections of personal liberation are intertwined with an attention to feeling over genre.
With Jarrah Murray, Lachlan Fitzgerald, and brother Tristan Kenny, Jordan has put together Sydney’s greatest Mock ‘n’ Roll quartet in a decade – a charismatic group known for bringing an otherworldly sweat to their live shows, passionately entangling theatricality and unforgettable chaos.
Jordan has played in front of sold-out crowds at many of Sydney’s iconic venues, including The Factory Theatre, Crowbar, Vic on the Park, The Vanguard, Paddo RSL, Lazybones, The Brass Monkey, and The Lord Gladstone.
Notably, he has had the opportunity to perform two of his songs in Tasmania at The Odeon Theatre, accompanied by the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra. He and his band have also showcased at Australian Music Week and Cronulla Jazz & Blues Festival for 2 years in a row. Last year, the band are being featured at the Industry Access Music Conference, presented by Australian Music Week, Abbey Road Institute, and Studio 301.
Jordan’s nomadic single ‘(I) Blew The Sun Away’ enjoyed several plays on triple j and Unearthed – the track charted in the Top 10 on the Overall and Indie Charts, and received glowing reviews. His recent singles ‘GRINNING’, ‘What A Scene!’, and ‘Pretend To Care’ received further support from triple j, 2SER, 2XX FM, and FBi Radio!
“This is a really confident debut for Jordan. He’s let his grandest ambitions loose and we get the benefits of it with this cinematic and shapeshifting indie pop gem.”
