Seeing Violet are a femme-fronted, furious and provocative powerhouse of alternative rock. Tackling the tumultuous political landscape, ripping heartbreak, power struggles, and pertinent social issues in their music, they are a truly unique driving force pushing alternative rock into the future.
In support of their debut EP, Sleepwalking, Seeing Violet are set to shake Sydney to its core with their live show. Supported by hometown heroes FAILSAFE, this is not a show to miss for any fans of Paramore, MCR, & RATM.
Having met whilst studying together at university, Maddie, Rob, Ryan and Jack quickly established themselves in the Brisbane music scene before rampaging around SEQ to support Hands Like Houses, WAAX, Surf Trash & Kurilpa Reach, as well as earning a festival appearance at Valley Crawl and selling out multiple headline shows in their hometown, most recently putting on their own alternative mini festival (La Viola Festiva) which packed out Tomcat. Seeing Violet's live show will take you on an explosive journey of catchy hooks, emotional musings, and searing breakdowns, empowering everyone in their aether to take a journey into their deepest emotions.

Failsafe's high powered, rock n roll bliss developed from humble beginnings - just three kids wanting to jam together in a bedroom in the Inner West. From this wholesome genesis and a few small gigs at bowlos, Failsafe evolved into a regular gigging band and became a mainstay on stages throughout Sydney. Across the two brief years the trio have been playing, Failsafe have firmly established their signature bleeding heart rock and slick as hell live performances.
In the tradition of garage, Failsafe have maintained a DIY approach, popping up in parks and skate bowls armed with a generator and optimistic energy, as well as their mainstage shows.The fast footed pulse driven by Theo Fernandez, the groovy bass licks of Anna Morrow and Liam Elwing's screeching axe married with angst ridden lung power are all the epitome of pure, unadulterated punk goodness.
