The Wraylettes w/ FÄHM & Maids of Horror
Link Wray fans of the Hunter – your night to pay homage to the Godfather of punk and garage guitar has finally come!
Ready to rumble, Newcastle? Hailing from Melbourne, The Wraylettes is the world’s only all-female band dedicated to the music of explosive Shawnee rock’n’roller Link Wray. With a set spanning Wray’s better-known numbers, his more obscure gems and even a coupla 'Linkspired' originals, the group put their own sassy spin on his songs while staying true to his untamed spirit. With a brand-spankin' new 7" EP, Wraydioactive!, and a mission to spread the gospel of their musical guru far and wide, The Wraylettes are coming for you!
For anyone who saw them support The Cruel Sea on their December 2023 East Coast tour, you’ll know what a sonic stompin’ show you’re in for!

Fähm, are a gathering of like-minded demented souls seeking refuge in sound. Creating a cacophony of twisted tales in the tradition of The Butcher Shop, Gun Club, the Scientists, all told via the gravel textured lungs of their chief agent provocateur, Huck , accompanied by manic slide, aching violin and a thumping rhythm section . A side project that began as a self indulgent dip of a toe , the band consists of members from Newcastle’s underground meets roots music circles including Huckleberry & the Devil’s Dandruff/ the Howlin’ Rats/ The Outliers/ the Not Nots & Pornskas/Paper Thin.

Maids of horror are Newcastle’s midnight queens and unholy hosts that take you on a velvet cowpunk ride through a sonic valley that fuses heartbreaking melodic rhythms and frenzied grooves - all with an inimitable southern gothic bittersweet kick to boot! Join them as they delve into macabre and enigmatic songscapes that sojourn from one heart of darkness to the next.
