We got Canyons to pick their favourite Soundcloud tracks which includes a track from their alter egos Pink Gin.

4 Walls is a festival that markets itself as for the youth, by the youth, and this year’s organisers have done a great job putting together a line-up of cool, young bands.

On the whole The Madisons are a bit of shameless fun for a Sunday arvo.

The band are naturally tight, though, drawing primarily from their latest self-titled record and not venturing much into their back catalogue.

What you see is what you get with Laura Marling, which tonight is a beautiful songwriter and performer who is completely honest.

In a shameless attempt to buff out the length of their set (“we were told off in Sydney for not playing long enough” – not a great move) they fail miserably in trying to inspire a crowd rendition of Advance Australia Fair.

When they rip into Blink 182’s Dammit, it’s like it is the first time the song’s ever been played. Sweaty and sober, it’s an awesome way to finish a killer gig.
