ROCK ON WITH AUSSIE ICONS

-

From the ’90s to now, it’s time to break out your best flannel and celebrate some of the finest of Aussie rock.

Baby Animals and The Screaming Jets are sharing a stage for the first time in 25 years – and bringing all their hits with them to Helensvale’s NightQuart­er.

Fronted by Suze DeMarchi and Dave Gleeson respective­ly, two of the country’s most dynamic performers, fans can look forward to a solid gold night of rock with songs such as Better, One Word, Helping Hand, Painless, Shivers, Early Warning, Rush You and Eve Of Destructio­n.

With nine albums, seven Top 40 radio hits, countless live shows and a Hot Metal magazine No. 1 album for 2016, The Screaming Jets are working harder than ever even after 27 years in the business.

Meanwhile, this time in 1992, Baby Animals were celebratin­g their first No.1 album with their debut release. Fast forward 25 years and the band are riding high on the back of full houses for their recent One Word anniversar­y tour.

“We first shared a stage with the Baby Animals about 25 years ago,” says Dave Gleeson.

“We’ve all done a lot of miles since then. There’s always been a lot of mutual respect and musical admiration between the two bands. We’re all pumped.” WHERE: NightQuart­er, Helensvale CONTACT: nightquart­er.com.au PRICE: tickets from $50
