Rob Robot
Rob Robot is the name that unites four dudes who like to play bulk music. Since forming in 2009, Rob Robot have blasted their way onto the local music scene with their unique sound and style which has been described by some as ‘anthematic indie’. Brothers, Pat on guitar and Jak Pearson on bass, developed their love for music early on in a shed in Central Queensland. They are joined by energetic lead vocalist, Jamie Bell, and dynamic drummer Kane Donoghue to produce catchy melodies, melodic riffs and high energy and unpredictably entertaining performances.

Emperors
Emperors started out in 2009 as a studio project with Adam Livingston and Greg Sanders having the common goal of writing catchy, loud pop music without any trace of cynicism or pretension. The songs combine rich melodies, anthemic vocals and abrasive guitars with the influences being varied, but firmly entrenched in 90’s indie rock and 80’s punk.
So what began as an inebriated, weekly ritual in a North Perth apartment developed over the next year until it became a poorly rehearsed but passionate rock n roll machine.

Echo & The Bunnymen
Echo & the Bunnymen are a British post-punk band formed in Liverpool in 1978. The original line-up consisted of Ian McCulloch (of The Crucial Three), Will Sergeant and Les Pattinson. There are many stories, probably apocryphal, that the quartet was completed by a drum machine known as "Echo". By the time of their debut album, 1980's Crocodiles - a moderate UK hit - the drum machine had been replaced by Pete de Freitas.

Bayou
Bayou blend cascading guitar lines, eerie female harmonies and propulsive drumming with anthemic lead vocals to create a sound that is haunting, commanding and dirty all at the same time – a fuzzed out missive from some enticing underworld.
