The band will utilise YouTube’s latest monetisation feature Super Chat, to donate to Black Rainbow the non-profit social enterprise that is 100% Indigenous owned and operated, which serves as a national advocacy platform and touchpoint for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Queer, Transgender and Intersex (LGBTQI) peoples.

Front-person Tim Nelson said he was looking forward to playing the band’s latest tunes.

“Bringing Like Nirvana to life in the live setting feels like magic. When we shot this performance, I could feel that connectedness, that ‘in the zone’ feeling from shows that I’d been missing so much. I’m excited for viewers to experience that feeling too.”

The performance comes off the back of a mammoth week for the self-managed, independent four-piece who debuted at #2 on the ARIA Albums Chart this week, giving the band both commercialk success and critical acclaim.

Head to YouTube and set a reminder so you don’t miss the show.  

Take a listen to the band’s latest single – Be Your Man.
