Sonic Masala 2019

Overview

Bowls clubs aren't just a source of beer at 1970s prices, great cheap lunches and fun stints of rolling balls at other balls — or not at Club Greenslopes at least. The inner-south spot is also Sonic Masala's annual home, with the music festival returning for 2019.

The main action takes from 11am on Saturday, August 17, combining everything that a 4ZZZ-presented music festival at a bowls club should: bowls (obviously), bands (of course), brews (naturally) and food (well, you're going to be hungry after all of the above). And, it's bringing a packed lineup, all for the entry price of $25 on the door, with everyone from Adele Pickvance, Dumb Things, Ghost Notes, Nice Biscuit, Olivia's World, Start Together, Tape/Off, The Stress Of Leisure, Turnpike and Yes I'm Leaving on the bill — plus plenty more.

If that's not enough, there'll also be a pre-fest party the night before at The Bearded Lady in South Brisbane. The Garbage and the Flowers and Sounds Like Sunset lead the Friday evening bill, and tickets to the August 16 shindig also cost $10–15 at the door.
