YOUR AUGUST GIG GUIDE

 

Hey everyone! Sorry we are a little late…

Heaps of FREE gigs this month! Yours and Owl’s ‘GONG CRAWL’ is a now annual festival spread across 10 venues in Wollongong all on one day that is entirely free! Plus loads more local and international acts playing venues in and around Dharawal Wollongong and Eora Gadigal Sydney. We’ve put a few select highlights here in one place, just for you!

In this guide, we’ve included previews of the featured artists’ music to help you easily find which gigs fit your vibe, or maybe to introduce you to some new sounds.

ARMLOCK ‘Seashell Angel Lucky Charm’ ALBUM TOUR

Eagerly recommend this beautiful new release from Armlock.

The production is masterful and bright, the vocals are evocative and sombre.

For fans of Alex G, Clairo, Slow Pulp, Feeble Little Horse.

Listen “Fear” or “Guardian” and feel nostalgic about love.

Listen to “Godsend” or “Fair” if you just feel like crying.

Catch Armlock at one of these shows this month!
