Valvetrain is an Australian rock band who formed in 2014 as a song writing and recording project. The project quickly grew legs and released a self titled EP in the same year. Touring extensively with just the 5 songs, the band built a reputation of solid and consistently powerful live shows and quickly sold out of the debut EP. In 2016 there was a line up change and it was time to focus on new material. With a new line up the band hit

the studio at the end of 2016 and in March 2017 released their debut 13 track album - Rust. Featuring stand out tunes - Stone, After the fall, Blood Eagle, Before the End and The End, the band grew and matured into a solid rock outfit.

During 2017, Valvetrain only played a handful of shows but released several videos and focused on promotional appearances on radio and other media. In 2019 the band is not slowing down!

A brand new and exciting rock n roll band from Brisbane The trio consists of Zac Lynch (Lead Guitar/ Vocals), Brody Lynch (Bass Guitar), and Matt Mackenzie (Drums). Whisky Grinn draws a heavy influence from the classic rock n roll of the 60’s and 70’s, inspired by artists such as The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix and Led Zepplin. Combining a love of classic rock n roll and blues with the modern edge of the The White Stripes and Wolfmother.

The group started in September of 2017 playing there first show the following month at The Brightside. Taking

advantage of a small amount of local hype, the group gigged hard throughout the end of 2017 and early 2018.

They release their debut EP in March “Do You Speak Rock n Roll?” and quickly hit the road to promote pulling of a successful east coast tour.

Returning to Brisbane with a new spring in their step the group continued to work hard in Brisbane honing their sound playing shows around Toowoomba, The Gold Coast and Brisbane.

Banned FTC are a group of friends that met on the club scene, fronted by the singer, song writer Linamix (Iain Harris) the band has such an uplifting and worldly sound, that feels commercial despite it’s alternative, rock pith.

Their knowledge of knowing what to play and when, has helped shape their ability to write songs that make people want to dance and feel great.

This self-managed, self-funded, truly independent endeavour is driven by a work hard, play hard attitude that is born of innocence and passion.

As a live act they are very polished and full of energy, because let’s face this lot love to party just as hard, if not harder than you.

Experience the atmosphere and stage performance of music legends while enjoying the company of new friends Brissy Tribute Bands (BTB) is one of the most active Meetup groups in Brisbane. The group is very popular because there are no memberships, most the entertainment is totally free – everyone likes live music and dancing.

Another reason for the group’s popularity is that we host Meetups for all tastes of music at a variety of venues.

This group is for singles, couples young and young at heart who enjoy the music of 50’s through to modern day. Like us you may have not had the opportunity to see the original, because they have disbanded or sadly deceased. The band also may not have toured Australia yet or the tickets were out of your price range, seeing the tribute bands are the next best thing. If you want to experience the atmosphere, stage performance and sounds of these music legends, BTB is for you.

Examples of BTB Meetups

• Free Live Music every Saturday night at the Queensport Hotel with a least two tribute bands a month.

• Free and Ticketed tribute bands and shows, usually at Sports Clubs and RSL’s within Brisbane and outer shires.

• Free Live Music Sunday Sechs at the Queensport Hotel

• Free Pub Rock Choirs, sing along with the tribute bands

• One day Live Music Festivals next one 24th February

• Three day camping Live Music Festivals next one 29th March to 1st April Plus Much More!
