The gig features a huge line-up local bands including some old favourites who have reformed just for the day. Post-rock band Radarmaker will be playing live for the first time in many years and local pop merchants Turnstyle are on the bill too.

Psychedelic band Wheelers of Oz who are enjoying the success of their ‘Revivalised’ album are one of the many bands set to play, as is Joni and the Moon whose single ‘War and Porn’ got some heavy airplay in 2015.

Topping the bill is longtime RTRFM favourite Grace Barbe.

Profits from the event go towards the operating costs of the community radio station, which broadcasts over 50 different programs including LGBTI show ‘All Things Queer’.
