Dirty Suits (Headliner)

Born from the shores of the Illawarra Escarpment in 2020, Dirty Suits is a band shaped and moulded by the likes of The Bad Loves and Hoodoo Gurus, with a sprinkling of Robert Smith magic.

Dirty Suits’ brand of bluesy swamp rock cloaked in avant-garde punk has already produced two albums: 2023’s ‘Where’d Ya Park The Karma!’ and 2024’s ‘Tales From The Swamp’.

Now they’re taken the covers of new single, ‘Blackwater Bay’, a bruising song that bubbles and froths, squealing in intensity, biting with an Australiana-flecked blues rock that’s equally intoxicating as it is menacing.

Zion (2nd Support)

zion

 A hard hitting grunge rock band from the Illawarra’s northern suburbs. Since forming in 2021, the trio have matured into a band that is recognized for their distinctive gritty sound and raw energy.

Drawing their inspiration from the dirty, distorted sounds of 90’s grunge bands, Zion released their first 2 singles, Mongoose and Saturation in 2023, receiving accolades from both industry professionals and their growing fanbase.

 The Lore says: From a swamp in the pit of the Illawarra Escarpment rose a magical creature called Dirty. It was awful to the eye but true of heart. Shunned by all the other swamp creatures Dirty led a lonely existence until 2020 when three surfing adventurers stumbled across its den. Frightened at first, Dirty soon realised these three might be worthy.

He gave one a guitar, one a drum, and one a piano.

As they played Dirty began to glow.

It said, ‘I’m sure you three will rise to the level of entertaining casual drinkers and diners at the week’s end and I have something that will help.’ Dirty then presented the travelling trio with three suits and said ‘This will help your quest’. The drummer, the boldest of the three said, ‘Are these magic suits?’

Dirty replied, ‘No.’

After surfing together for over a decade, Matt Ayliffe and Peter Cunnington started jamming in 2020.

The click was immediate. Coming from different musical backgrounds seems to help, not hinder the writing process. From industrial, Avante Garde, Punk and Rock’n’Roll. The songs dictate themselves. Demographics and egos, all checked at the door.  Dirty Suits is creativity for its own sake. And as of Feb 2023, Luke Brooks has joined the ‘Dirty Suits’ family on drums and any out there suitable piece of equipment he can whack a sound out of to get this trio rockin’ any venue down.

Set in the dark country, Blackwater Bay is the tale of a man trying to rescue his wife from an insidious cult. Is it a salvage operation or a kidnapping? And exactly who is insidious? Led by a bass in 5’s and a wild guitar. This is an expedition of misplaced trust and entrapment.
