2009 Final Line-up

Kyu Kyü are a new-ish Sydney experimental pop duo, who describe their sound as "a tea party with Beethoven, Bowie, Bjork and a Banshee.”	super FLORENCE jam super FLORENCE jam are an underground sensation. With a reputation for an electric live show and innovative original rock, this Sydney foursome have played to packed and passionate crowds across Sydney and promise a spectacle wherever they perform.
Conditionals Formed within the festering, soul-crushing environment of the Sydney Law School, conditionals channel their many frustrations into scuzzy indie punk. With songs drawing inspiration from birdstrikes, underhanded architects and mistaken Scandinavian identities, the band promises you at the very least 20 minutes of unhinged, faceplanting energy. See conditionals.net.	Stephanie Says Stephanie Says formed at the start of this year having been inspired by the quality of music currently coming out of Australia and drawing on influences from 60s garage bands to 80s post punk and 90s britpop and shoegaze. Leveling their love of fuzz and drone with sincere songwriting, whilst not being afraid to relax and enjoy themselves on stage; Stephanie Says is a fun and interesting watch.
Foveaux  We've played music together for a number of years but have only recently put our ideas into a live performance. We want to make music for a living, this is the beginning.	Moravia Song-based, hook-laden indie / rave / rock with lyrical depth and a great purpose. The Sydney fourpiece, obsessed with energy & passion, perfecting great songs & the history of rock'n'roll, are a joyous ruckus both live and on record.
