Blake Williams @ The Golden Barley, 8th Jun

“Blake Williams doesn’t miss, precisely-targeted directly to the core. The power in these songs meshes with their vulnerability, exposing as much as they explode off the stage, raw emotion harmonising with the sheer glee of playing.

LLC @ The Golden Barley, 8th Jun

“LLC’s highly-strung, tightly-wound folk punk judders as much as it rings, twitchy and staring. Gloriously rich, it’s a chocolate cake liberally laced with speed, a sweet treat to keep you wide-eyed and awake for days.” Gallery Learn More Instagram

Vetty Vials @ The Golden Barley, 8th Jun

“When playing acoustic and solo, some artists make you kinda hanker for the full band thing, like you’re missing out a bit. Vetty Vials is just plenty all on her own, enough to get well and truly lost in, a joy of the highest order.” Gallery Learn More Instagram

Raff Iacurto @ The Duke Of Enmore, 2nd Jun

“Raff Iacurto – of Robot God and other extraordinarily loud bands – draws down on his inches-thick songbook tonight at another of his Sundown Serenade nights at The Duke.

Max Steele @ The Duke Of Enmore, 2nd Jun

“Max Steele plays in at least two bands that self-describe with the word ‘doom’, so it’s a delightful surprise to hear this solo acoustic set, chock full of incredibly tricksy guitar work that skitters along next to a rich and powerful vocal.
