The Triffid Launch

Overview

Cashed up Aussie musicians do the strangest things. Some join politics like Peter Garrett or The Basics. Their significant others make their way to Real Housewives of Melbourne. And others, namely Powderfinger bassist John Collins, go and establish new music venues that promise to reshape the Brisbane music scene. Introducing, The Triffid.

This new place of musical worship is launching itself this Saturday night, with Saskwatch, The Creases and Mt Warning set to baptise the stage. Melbourne bands don't get much more exciting than Saskwatch — this nine-piece dance explosion pull out all the stops to create a live music experience that effortlessly marries rock with soul. Brisbane boys The Creases have been doing our scene proud with their international tours, daggy video clips and happy-go-lucky songs, and Mt Warning show off a captivating pysch-folk talent that has to be seen and heard to be believed. If The Triffid can pull together this kind of quality for their first gig, great things must be in store.

Tickets are $23.80 and, unless it sells out beforehand, you can grab them at the freshly painted door. Be a part of Brisbane history and check it out!
