Post-glam rock

The Bancrofts -  "They play to you one-on-one, The Bancrofts. As if the whole show is just for you, intimately, sensually, welcome to the ‘in-crowd-ily’ special. And then you realise you’re sitting in a packed (to capacity) room with everyone else feeling exactly the same way. The ‘in-crowd’ is everyone; but still you (so don’t feel jilted). 

I would describe them as unabashedly hedonistic. A rare sparkling gem found in the middle of rock. Flirty but comforting. Transparent but mysterious. A musical spiegaltent of instrumental gifts laced with gilded lyrics delivered by a spiritual being that shifts resonance from heart to mind in the blink of an eye."

- Charlotte Rose Graham, The Music Producer

Slapjack  are an alternative pop outfit from Newcastle, NSW. The collective purpose has always been to create and perform music that stimulates both the head and heart, all whilst electrifying the bodies of those who listen. The band's overall sound incorporates old-school funk sensibilities whilst adding a variety of modern pop/dance elements that create exciting and engaging arrangements.

Drawing on inspiration from artists in the New York/Boston indie scene, the seven-piece group are carving their own path through the Australian music scene through their high-energy live shows and unique instrumentation. 

'Intoxicating listeners with their rainbow bus of sound' Slapjack invites you to join them on their quest to unleash seismic grooves and infectious moves into the world and beyond.

Edgecliff   Hailing from the Northern beaches in Sydney Australia, 5-piece alt rock band Edgecliff, are best mates, with a striving desire to create and grow together. 

Born out of high-school, the band comprises of Will Howell (lead guitar, lead vocals), Kai Stackhouse (bass, back-up vocals), Jesse Calabrese (rhythm guitar), Jacob Lock (drums) and Nick Murace - (keyboard), all of whom share diverse musical influences. Since 2018, Edgecliff have released an impressive and consistent catalogue of original releases including a debut body of work titled Uproar in 2022 which saw the band gain a loyal fan following and endorsement from industry heavyweights such as Tone Deaf, Heavy Mag, The Soundcheck + more. 

“Combining classic rock flavours with more modern touches, the Northern Beaches group are unrestrained, with Dave Grohl-esque vocals and ripping guitar lines. They are monumentally confident and swaggering, tailor-made to fill the biggest arenas.”-  Connor Lochrie of Tone Deaf

To go along with their relentless output of music, the band have toured the east coast of Australia numerous times, frequenting well established venues such as, 1880 Hotel Bathurst, The Factory Floor, Marrickville, Union Club in Cobar and more.

Polar Eyes   Lead singer Dylan brought Polar Eyes together in late 2018 when bassist and producer Biraj expressed the idea of forming a band together. The two met while working and began recording demos at the time. Drummer Zach was a friend of Dylan's having moved next door in primary school and joined the band soon after. Guitarist Daniel played football with Dylan in 2019 and came into the band in the second half of 2019, rounding out the 4 members of Polar Eyes. The band's first single, "Same Old Story", released 25th October 2019, comes from the experiences of young people trying to find their way amongst love and lust on night's spent clubbing, dancing and singing the night away.

In 2022/23, the band has two new singles out with a debut EP on the way, and with dozens of shows under their belt have very much come into their own as a four piece indie rock outfit. The band thrive off of each other's energy and that's something they lean into every time they're on stage.
