These bands do not shy away from the spotlight. Burger Joint, Hot Potato Band, Horns of Leroy, all headlined by Caravana Sun.

Caravana Sun

Since 2011, Sydneysiders CARAVÃNA SUN have built a renowned reputation across the globe for their dynamic and energetic live performances. Their infectious grooves which progressively merge their surfy coastal lifestyle with elements of explosive rock, euphoric electronica/dance and rambunctious reggae/ska have earned the band slots on some of the world’s most coveted stages.

Horns of Leroy

Formed in 2013, Melbourne’s Horns of Leroy have become one of the country’s premier brass bands. Inspired by the sounds of New Orleans and fused with the energy of the Melbourne streets, the group has earned themselves a reputation for delivering raucous shows built on strong foundations and insatiable energy.

Hot Potato Band

Bursting with energy, colour, and charisma, Hot Potato Band is all about igniting unforgettable moments. The Sydney-based brass collective break down the barrier between stage and audience, transforming unlikely spaces into dance floors and leaving a trail of smiles in their wake.

Burger Joint

This wall of sound of funk bass loops, epic lead guitar and tight fat drums with vocal harmonies singing fun tongue in cheek lyrics which make you smile as you get on down. Burger Joint ‘s charismatic funked up live show is a huge sound with plenty of guitar solos over the back of the head, percussion breakdowns, and a stage presence that is like having a party with your closest mates.
