You shouldn't really need an excuse to celebrate Australia's vibrant music scene, but it's nice to have one. Enter Woolly Mammoth and 4ZZZ. They're bringing together local and national musicians with their annual, boutique, one-night music festival, Happyfest.
Since 2012, 4ZZZ's Happyfest has sported a collection of up-and-comers who've since gone on to conquer international music circuits — namely Blank Realm, Lost Animals, Kirin J Callinan and Bitch Prefect. This year they've snagged Sydney rockers Tees, plus locals Girlsuck, Bad Bangers, Low Dive, Sex Drive, Bloodletter, Madboots and Teva. And if you're a fan of the latter, it'll be his last Brissie show before he moves down south.
Happyfest kicks off at 7.30pm on November 12, with $15 entry for the general public and $10 for 4ZZZ members.
