Winners Announced For The 2018 VB Hard Yards Tour

Staff Writer

Congrats!

Beating some serious competition, emerging acts Being Jane Lane, Paper Thin and Claws & Organs have scored a spot in the VB Hard Yards tour van, embarking on a tour this October and supporting local legends along the way.

The aforementioned winners from Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria were selected from more than 600 applicants, reining victorious across the competitions shortlisting and the public voting process, meaning you can expect some serious talent across the four free shows.

The VB Hard Yards Tour will kick off in Melbourne with headliner Alex Lahey, before taking on Brisbane with WAAX, Newcastle with RAAVE TAPES and Sydney with Tired Lion.

You’ll get the chance to hear new music from Queensland rockers Being Jane Lane, while NSW outfit Paper Thin showcase their DIY mentality and Melbourne's Claws & Organs unleash their ruthless stage presence.
