For a week in September, Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley becomes the focal point for the Australian music industry as the BIGSOUND Festival kicks off. Hundreds of industry members, punters and musicians assemble to see the next wave of acts perform live across several official and unofficial showcase performances.
Weirdo Wasteland, in conjunction with photographer Jeff Andersen Jnr. and Jet Black Cat Music, put a call out to some BIGSOUND artists we admire to enlist them for a series of portraits taken at Bloodhound Bar throughout the week.
The latest in the series is Fremantle, West Australian outfitBoat Show. The five-piece – consisting of Ali Flintoff, Jennifer Aslett, Indigo Foster-Tuke, Stella Donnelly and George Foster – was one of the most talked-about acts of the week, blowing away audiences with their blend of frenzied punk. Check out the gallery below!
