Despite Brisbane's recent lockdown local music punters can celebrate as Torch Fest Brisbane has been given the green light to go ahead this weekend. It's so important in times like these that events like this can still go ahead – for the artists, the venues and for the general public – so to add the cherry on the top, Torch Fest have just announced that Tori Forsyth will be joining the already massive line-up.

Melbourne-via-Brisbane artist Austen kicks off a new chapter with the release of her latest single, ‘Worse Things’. Featuring a more DIY-approach and more organic instrumentation, Austen leans further into the indie pop sounds inspired by the likes of Lily Allen or Sky Ferreria, channeling her idols to create a wholly authentic and genuine sound.
