Hailing from Northern Melbourne, The Backyard Banjo Club are a tangled mess of banjo, violin, accordion, saxophone and bass. Sometimes upbeat, sometimes sultry, we don’t take ourselves too seriously and we always have fun. Think Wes Anderson meets Quentin Tarantino for a festival set. From sell-out Melbourne shows to folk clubs and festivals around the country including Woodford Folk Festival, Yackandandah Folk Festival and Tablelands Folk Festival, we bring tongue-in-cheek stage banter and a healthy dose of instrumental finesse to the stage.

Brother and sisters in arms, Big League and Holy Moses Heartache once again join forces for and evening of beautiful noise.

The Cinematics play music for those random movies in your head. Part 70's cop show, part spy flick, part Scandi noir, part Russ Meyer (but tastier and tighter). Like us, you are probably up for anything as long as you are home for dinner. So slap on your sunscreen, forget the football and find out at this afternoon show in the Retreat's verdant Beer Garden on Sun 21 Sept, 2-4pm

Come join the TOMMYS, Rob Viva Lastdrager - Drums, Jonathan Lickliter - Bass, Ollie Laurie - Guitar as they continue to celebrate the release of their red-hot vinyl 45 single "Born to follow/ Window Pane. Get ready for 2 hours of nonstop groove-based surf soul garage rock & roll action in the front bar from 7.30PM!

Well Into Winter are about to go make their second record so need some time in the middle. Come listen to the new record in full before we make it - it's weird and personal and a bit dreamy but has a lot of loud moments that are best live.
