hazards of swimming naked 10.15pm

hazards of swimming naked are a mainly instrumental group from far north queensland. their music reflects the isolation, beauty and paranoia of the region. ambient late night grooves wander out too deep and drown in terror. recently seen in brisbane blowing minds at the globe with bloon and the rational academy, hazards are a band of truly international calibre.

the sea shall not have them 9.30pm

inspired by red wine, coffee and regular bouts of insomnia, the sea shall not have them are a beautiful instrumental band who use an 8 track, guitar and drums, to deliver an ethereal set with echoes of the church, the cure, jesus and mary chain, mogwai and my bloody valentine. how good does that sound?

the strange attractors 8.45pm

the strange attractors draw from the same brand of 60's pyschadelia that bands like the dandy warhols and the brian jonestown massacre ate up. their edgiest edges intersect the massive 90s soul of spaceman 3 and spiritualised. classic pop confidence, a big lush sound.. good times.

toy balloon 8pm

this is toy balloon's third visit to the hangar stage, and each time they have been the band people fell in love with. greg cooper's masterful groovebox programming and nimai etheridge's masterful telecaster smashing is combined to produce a sound that is entirely fresh. melodic, layered and yep, funky. there. i said it. funky. come early, do not miss this band.
