Mid Drift have quickly become one of the must-watch bands to emerge from Brisbane’s indie rock scene over the past couple of years.
Gaining a reputation for their sun-soaked melodies and breezy riffs, the group sold out two headline tours in 2025 while also supporting the likes of Ocean Alley, Old Mervs and DICE and appearing at Australian festivals such as Spaced Out Festival and Rolling Sets Festival.
Their new EP, Good At Avoiding, is a joyous listen, and their upcoming tour gives fans a chance to hear songs from the release live for the first time.
Catch Mid Drift at Jive on Friday 29 May. Ticketing information is available at middriftband.com.
