WIFECULT are the sonic tsunami from Brisbane (Meanjin) Queensland, gracing stages across Australia with their striking harmonic performances.
​
With the release of their EP ‘Kindness In Clarity’, the trio stepped out of the emo rock corner and into the open with their supersonic angry pop tracks like ‘Rose’ and ‘Hold It Down’. Claiming real estate on high rotation playlists and seeing them tour across Australia with longtime heavyweight bands Thrice (USA) and La Dispute (USA).
​
While soaring harmonies, screaming guitars, cavernous bass and punishing drums are the bedrock of WIFECULT’s sound, the group continue pushing limits with their sonic palette.
Do not miss your chance to experience the unsubtle force that is WIFECULT.

JACK DYLAN AND THE VILLAINS are an unholy collision of gothic Australian grit and uncompromising punk poetic storytelling.
Formed just 18 months ago in the backstreets and the backyards of QLD, the group fronted by Sunshine Coast native Jack Dylan McCullagh (formerly of Dr Sures Unusual Practice) have quickly developed a reputation for their visceral, raw sound and intense live performance of songs filled with life, love and longing.
​
Following the release of their sophomore album A Place to Live, this performance is not one to miss!
