The Foundry Launch Party

Overview

Brisbane, there’s a new live venue in town. Actually, it’s more than just a place for gigs; it’s a creative music hub. Behind the scenes, all things entertainment have a new place to call home, but that’s not what The Foundry’s opening night is about.

Throwing an awesome launch party is the only thing on the agenda when its doors open to the public, a feat that seems to be in the bag. The buzz already surrounding the backpackers-turned-bar — complete with a 300-person live room and adjacent beer garden — is certain to do most of the work; however, it wouldn’t be a party without some blistering tunes.

In the first of many nights of speaker-shattering sounds to come, The Foundry has rounded up some of their favourite acts to gets things started. Local 10-piece-plus garage groovesters Velociraptor, Sydney legend SPOD and White Lodge take the honours of being the first bands to grace the stage, while Babaganoüj and James Wright will be keeping the vibe going on the decks between sets. You know you want to be there.
