Plastic Launch Debut EP At Gasometer

The former NZ alt-indie five-piece will bring you 'Nightmares'

Fronted by 2012 APRA Silver Scroll Award nominee Louis McDonald, alt-indie five-piece Plastic are launching debut EP, Nightmares, which includes debut single, So Numb, in Sep. Formerly a New Zealand band called Five Mile Town, the band relocated to Melbourne and following a lineup change opted to change their name to Plastic. 

It was in the same year as his APRA nomination, 2012, that McDonald won the Teen Division of the International Songwriting Competition, as did another Kiwi whose career has skyrocketed in the intervening years. Joining Plastic for the launch are special guests Frida. Go to theGuide for details.
