In the heart of Naarm, Acid Arrow weaves outlaw country with psychedelia, led by the angelic tones of Brooke Penrose (Saint Jude) and the smoky baritone of Brett Marshall (Mightiest of Guns). Born from a shared dream, their raw songs evoke rugged landscapes and heartfelt rebellion.
Despite their brief time together, they’ve left a mark with rare performances alongside Eaten By Dogs, Freya Josephine-Hollick, Ben Mastwyk, Katie Brianna, and Amarillo, earning quiet acclaim in Naarm’s music scene. Each note carries their craft’s weight, drawing listeners into the gritty heart of outlaw balladry.

Tasmania’s own Mankind are bringing their signature blend of gothic rock, post-punk, and hypnotic psychedelia to stages across the southern states of Australia this summer in support of their new single "GOTHIC GIRL". Known for their lush, melodic basslines, droning synths, and booming percussion, the duo will be embarking on a 3-date run of Melbourne shows, followed by 2-Tasmanian dates in a truly unmissable live experience.
2024 was a big year for the duo, with the 9 date "Home State Tour", 4 date "Home Away From HOME VIC Tour", headlining "Le Deux Fest", headlining a date at Stay Gold in Melbourne, opening for UK industrial legends Attrition, and bringing their captivating energy to Junction Arts Fest. Mankind are ready to take their dark, atmospheric sound to new heights in 2025. Their latest single, "Gothic Girl", is an intoxicating mix of heavy riffs, melodic 80s-inspired verses, with a psychedelic bridge—in ode to the intoxicating allure of female orgasmic rapture. If you’re a fan of bold, genre-blurring music with a cinematic edge, this is the show you won’t want to miss.
Catch them live as they make their mark in Melbourne and Tasmania—don’t miss the chance to experience the hypnotic, thrilling sound of Mankind in full force. Joined by Winternationale & Wolf Arrow Rain.
