IN THE PINES 2018 FINAL LINEUP ANNOUNCEMENT ADDS 6 NEW BANDS

IN THE PINES 2018 FINAL LINEUP ANNOUNCEMENT ADDS 6 NEW BANDS

RTRFM’s 25th In the Pines just got a whole lot bigger.

The brain child of Hideous Sun Demon front man Vin Buchannan, TERRIBLE SIGNAL are set to bring their quick fire, full frontal indie pop to the Somerville Auditorium. Vin’s distinct vocals and Australiana tinged song writing have found a home on the RTRFM airwaves this year, and will take their rightful place among the Pines.

RTRFM’s favourite son MATHAS will make his very long overdue Pines debut. One of Australia’s finest wordsmiths, Mathas is everything that is wonderful about the WA music scene: talented, humble and fully aware of the country in which he lives. Mathas will be joined by long time collaborators for a full band experience.

Perhaps one of the most exciting and talented bands to come out of Perth in the last few years, FOAM are bringing their blistering live set to In The Pines. To call them grunge would be an understatement, as proved by their massive 2017 release Coping Mechanisms, they go beyond that to make genre bending noise.

Perth’s finest purveyors of alt country story telling, THE KILL DEVIL HILLS join the 25th In The Pines lineup, a good six years since their last appearance. Their authentic drawl and honest song writing will perfectly resonate through the Somerville.

Adding to our list of reformed faves is UMPIRE & MUKIAZAKE. A group of mates in different bands all come together to make the best kind of pop music. Umpire (Geoff Symons, Simon Struthers, Michael Lake, Josh Watkins) formed in 2006 and immediately became RTRFM favourites, but we haven’t seen them live for well over five years. Mukiazake sees the 3/4 of Umpire joined by Dan Erickson (Blue Tile Lounge). They will play special set, featuring a combination of songs from both outfits.

ABBE MAY stands without peer in the Australian music scene, and has risen to new musical heights with the release of her most recent album Fruit – one of her finest works to date. Abbe May delivers her music with heart and soul, and we can’t wait to experience it at In The Pines.

Keep your eyes peeled for one more very special announcement.
