Jackson Firebird

Jackson Firebird are an explosive two piece Aussie Rock outfit spawned from the small country town of Mildura, Northern Victoria. The rock duo consists of fat guitar, distorted vocals, hard hitting drums and the unconventional sounds of a miked-up, upside-down “bottle bin”. Formed in 2006, Jackson Firebird have not only built a strong following on home soil but have captivated audiences from Adelaide to Melbourne, supporting such acts as Tim Rogers, Airborne, Little Birdie, The Fumes and The Screaming Jets just to name a few.

Yacht Club DJs

Yacht Club Djs are Gareth Harrison and Guy Chappell - Lawrence. The pair met at Ballarat's Karova Lounge a few years ago and somewhere along the line (and probably after a few too many beers) started making mashups. Since their incarnation and a massive stint pushing disks to indie kids in melbourne the duo decided to take their live show more seriously and took on the festival and touring circuit after successful performances at the Meredith Music Festival and Falls Festival in late 2008. 2009 has seen them tour Victoria and NSW, with brief jaunts up to QLD as well.

Tom Fun Orchestra

Born somewhere in the north Atlantic on a large fishing vessel, Tom's mother was an Austrian gypsy who had disguised herself as a male deck-hand in order to board the ship and create a new life on the other side. Her identity was revealed when she went into labour and shortly after Tom's birth was forced to walk the plank. Tom was taken ashore by an aging sailor named Whisky Gibbons who deposited him at a brothel on the edge of a small town somewhere outside of anywhere.
