Overview

Splendour in the Grass might be over for another year and festival season still a blip on the horizon, but in the meantime here's a great opportunity to invest in some home-grown talent and have a killer evening out while you're at it. After launching in 2018, Against the Grain returns for another year. Organised by local indie publication Grain, it's bringing its showcase of ace live music to The Foundry, The Brightside and The Valley Drive-In on Saturday, November 3

Rather than spreading out the action across three days as in previous years, this year's lineup ramps up the music mayhem across one huge night. Twenty interstate and local artists will take to three stages, so prepare for a hefty stint of hopping between venues.

Here's the full lineup:

City Calm Down
Tiny Little Houses
Good Boy
Maddy Jane
Totally Mild
Moaning Lisa
Sweater Curse
Vacations
Eliza and The Delusionals
Fritz
First Beige
