The Jungle Giants' gig at Metropolis Fremantle kicked off with a performance by Illawarra duo Hockey Dad. They presented a killer sound that put a modern twist on the surfy vibes that stemmed from lead singer Zach Stephenson's rhythm guitar, a retro backbeat from drummer Billy Fleming helped carry the duo's tone out into the crowd. One of the most memorable tracks they played was I Need A Woman, which epitomised of their sound, upbeat and crisp. Other tracks included Seaweed, which invited a more sombre tone to the venue, exploding into a deafening chorus with Fleming's vocals.

Indie-rock band Art Of Sleeping took over and added something unique to the night's mix. A heady mixture of classic rock and modern alt-rock emphasised a large presence on stage. Their set included popular track Above The Water, where, with its burgeoning acoustic beat coming from the rhythm guitars and the strength of lead singer Caleb Hodges' vocals, it was a wonder the song wasn't being performed in a stadium. Other tracks included more recent songs Bleeding Out and Voodoo, which again both showcased the band's unique, stadium-rock style.

The Jungle Giants leaped straight into their set with their signature fleeting indie-pop riffs and vocals, each chorus causing the crowd to erupt into a party-like atmosphere. Even in the first song, lead singer Sam Hales beckoned the crowd to sing the first line of each chorus, to which the punters complied, erupting with great gusto and truly showing how engaging the band's live performances really are. The band's presence on stage was hospitable, with Hales taking upon each sculling challenge from the crowd like a champ. The start of the set featured Way Back When and I'll See You Tomorrow, which, with their catchy rhythms and quirky sounds, caused the punters to sway from side to side in an almost funky fervour. The end of The Jungle Giants' set featured new hits Kooky Eyes and Every Kind Of Way, which ended the night in a flurry of indie goodness, providing a crisp close to an overall great gig. With a mixture of old hits and more recent tracks showcasing the band's new direction, the set was more of a crosssection of the band's journey to date, and a pointer to where they may go next.
