A Day In The Gully proved that even in less-than-ideal conditions, good music can turn any day into something unforgettable. 

Opening this year’s Adelaide Festival, the new music showpiece Tryp 1 was a feast for the senses, featuring an eclectic lineup of artists that blew everyone away.

Aussie alt-metal masters Thornhill were joined by Ocean Grove, Paledusk and Heavensgate for a night of cathartic heavy music at The Gov, and we were there to catch all the action.

Here again to rock the suburbs, the “defence attorney for Adelaide”, Ben Folds, treated the City of Churches to an entertaining and lively evening of music, stories and connection.

UniBar played host to some of South Australia’s most exciting young bands, with Even Hannah, Loader Lane, Sticky Beak, The Fuss, The Hazys, Colter and headliners PASH showcasing why our music scene is thriving.

Italy’s goth metal merchants Lacuna Coil put on one hell of a performance when they took over The Gov.

Delivering a career retrospective set of hits, fan favourites and deep cuts, UK act Morcheeba brought the good vibes to Adelaide.

The Tea Party turned up in Adelaide, putting on an exhilarating showcase of Moroccan roll that had the crowd grooving along.

“So let it simply be said that, for one very special night, Chappell Roan managed to transform the city of Adelaide into the pinkest of pony clubs.”

We Came As Romans arrived in Adelaide for the penultimate show of their Because We're Doomed and left everyone in attendance wishing the night would never end.

“In a live environment, Dream Theater’s music transcended the sum of its parts, transforming meticulous precision into visceral spectacle and technical mastery into genuine emotional weight.”

Froth & Fury continues to lead the way when it comes to heavy music festivals, with this year’s edition the best yet.

A no-barrier show, the last night of the tour and a 40-degree day. Better Lovers are getting the full experience as they wrap up their debut Australian tour at Lion Arts Factory. 

40-degree weather couldn’t stop the metal-pop icon’s debut in Adelaide. It was a night of brand new songs and a triple-threat bill supported by Ocean Grove and Inertia. 

The afternoon ultimately felt like a glimpse into two artists capable of much bigger, electrifying performances.
