Secret Sounds Flood Aid Brisbane

Overview

Secret Sounds, the organisation behind some of the country's most beloved festivals and memorable tours including Splendour in the Grass, has announced a huge tour of southern Queensland and northern New South Wales to raise money for flood-affected communities. The tour promoter hopes to raise $1 million over a one-month period, with those funds donated to organisations such as Lifeline, GIVIT, Koori Mail Bundjalung Community Flood Relief and Northern Rivers Community Foundation.

The Flood Aid tour will take place over three separate gigs — including one in Brisbane. Come Saturday, on March 26, at Fortitude Valley Music Hall, Brisbanites will be treated to sets from Bernard Fanning, The Rubens, Cub Sport (doing a DJ set), Last Dinosaurs, Stevan and Hanni.

Spend a night soaking in live tunes, help folks in need — that's what this gig is serving.

If you can't make it along, another way you can get involved is by buying merch from Secret Sounds. A special line of tongue-in-cheek 'Where the Muddy Hell Are You?' t-shirts and hats has been created, and a flood aid auction is also in the works.
