THE LINEUP

DRAINING ‘MOURN’ TOUR | HOLY FORREST: ‘ALWAYS HEARTSPACE’ EP LAUNCH Supported by Trillion, B-League, Supahoney

After consistently promoting their latest single "you & i", DRAINING are now ready to unveil “mourn” - a return to the band’s 2017 shoegaze roots, calling back to their self-titled EP while signalling what’s to come. 

Positioned at the forefront of the emerging nugaze and heavy shoegaze movement, “mourn” showcases heavily down-tuned, distorted guitars and dark, introspective themes. The track carries an almost Bones-esque dark rap atmosphere, blended with grungegaze textures and nu-metal intensity. 

The Nighthawk

The Nighthawk Honky Tonk- Live at Spotty Dog 

For one night only, Spotty Dog Brewery and Taphouse in Derwent Park will be transformed into a Nashville style honky tonk as The Nighthawk brings its signature country pop up to the north of Hobart.

This isn’t your usual pub gig. Expect a full boot scootin’ experience with live American country and honky tonk favourites, a rotating lineup of Tasmanian musicians, themed décor, Nashville inspired food specials and Spotty Dog’s craft drinks flowing all night.
