Join us for Heat 4 of the Stay Gold Battle Of The Bands featuring a killer lineup including The Dropkicks, The Opals, Blyss, The Clones + Crushed Lavender!

THE DROPKICKS

The Dropkicks are a gang of delinquents who tell their mums they love them, delivering an energetic blend of punk and funk rock, with a versatile exploration of other genres along with it. Mowing down shows with undeniable stage presence and face melting groove, The Dropkicks are legally qualified to captivate and rile up any crowd.

THE OPALS

The Opals are a blues infused alternative rock ‘n’ roll band from the outer north-eastern suburbs of Melbourne / Naarm, Australia. Known for their rowdy stage presence, passion and charisma, the lads are always determined to let loose and slap a smile on your face! The highly driven 4-piece consists of Ben Sierra on drums, Jacob Gordon on rhythm guitar, Eden Waugh on bass and their songwriter Alex Perkin on lead guitar and vocals.

BLYSS

Hailing from Ocean Grove, Waurn Ponds, Teesdale and Ballarat - these four losers barely have time to visit each other for a cold one, let alone make any music worth listening to. We know what you're thinking, how are they so good then?? Nobody knows.. It seems as if the best chance we have as a species to solve this mystery is to immerse ourselves in their live show, buy their merchandise and see what kind of incredible stuff blyss can whip up next.

THE CLONES

The Clones are bringing a new swing to your favourite genre.

Rocking out from the western suburbs of Melbourne, Australia.

CRUSHED LAVENDER

Crushed Lavender are a 4-piece punk band inspired by the generations of riot grrrl music before them. They play music that is just like them; confident, loud, fun and always up for a good time. After a writing break for most of 2025, the band is back and ready to share their new music on a stage near you!
