Tiktok sensation Artemas made his debut in Melbourne at Northcote theatre on Tuesday. His hit song “I like the way you kiss me” went viral this year and he has been on a roll ever since

The Rions’ Happiness in Places tour, celebrating their EP ‘Happiness In A Place It Shouldn’t Be’, made its way to The Pier Bandroom in Frankston on Saturday night. With support acts Pisco Sour and Holly Hebe, the night was filled with love, sweat, and an overwhelming sense of youthful joy.

Dropkick Murphys, probably your dad’s favourite band if you live in the inner city- is a Celtic Punk band that graced Melbourne last Sunday, coming all the way from Boston.

Listen Out, is notoriously known for its intense rave crowds and vibrant moshes- so when I found out I got a media pass for it- I was pumped to experience what it would be like.
