Have You Been To: The Gap Farmers Markets Twilight Music Festival

Answered by: Suzie Parker, Market Manager & Committee Member

Why should punters visit you? We help our community unwind. Where else can kids pony ride while the parents watch surf rock band Some Jerks?! Only $5 for six great bands! Subvert the suburb!

What's the history of the event? Started in 2014 with solo musicians Phil Smith and Sahara Beck in 2015. We've up-scaled to full bands. Muso's Rob Forster and Brett Myers grew up here. Saw The Goon Sax singer too!  

Any advice for first timers who want to visit the event? Gorge on calamari, scull a chilli lime drink and guffaw at words in Sex Time (The Stress of Leisure).     

Who's performing this time around? We present diverse original Bris-bands with Some Jerks (surf and garage rock), The Stress of Leisure (indie/post punk), Scraps (electro-pop) Splat Acrobat (surf/pop), Double Happiness and Sarah Engstrom Band. 

Do you have any plans for the event in the future? We love presenting new indie bands, like The Goldhearts who were here in June 2016 to play their new record. We want to part of indie bands touring and keep all ages happy too!

When and where for your next event? 23 Dec, The Gap Farmers' Market Twilight Festival
