The self-described 'scrap-rock scumbags', Coolabah Kings have been knocking about the local Naarm indie scene since September 2021 with a slew of tongue-in-cheek numbers earning them a local following. Latest single 'Get You Sorted' finds the band delving into the world of helping out a friend with mental health setbacks whilst dealing with your own inner demons.

Although only his second gig as a one-person band, Tommy-Carlos has been playing and touring in bands since the 80s. This latest incarnation sees him playing solo using loopers, effects, and a drum machine — all triggered and played in real time with no backing tracks. The result is equal parts sad indie/post-punk and tightrope pedalboard dancing.

Narrm/Melbourne Power-Chord Couple, The Nation Two, play Ringo Barr for the first time after recent tours to Meanjin/Brisbane and Tarndanya/Adelaide. Consisting of multiple fuzz pedals, singalong vocals and harmonies, TN2 channel a 90s punk/grunge vibe through a lens of more recent fuzzy/noisy/catchy bands like Ovlov and Metz. They like video games and beer gardens.
