Bugs - 'Head Noise' Album Launch | Night 2 [SOLD OUT]

Ahead of their anticipated fourth album HEAD NOISE out August 28, Brisbane’s Bugs are today proud to announce two album launch shows in September. On Thursday 10th and Saturday 12th September, Bugs will return to the stage to celebrate the record at Brisbane’s Crowbar - a venue that has been a core part of the band’s history over the years. With a stacked list of special guests, as well as some surprises, these shows are not to be missed. Joining Bugs for the Saturday show is Brisbane's Talk Heavy and VOIID, alongside Melbourne sing-songwriter Suzi, plus a special DJ set from Dune Rats The shows mark Bugs’ first live performances since October’s Saving A Bug’s Life fundraiser show for bassist Jordan Brunoli, who was diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer last year. With a strong show of support from Brisbane’s tight-knit community of music lovers, fans, family, and friends alike, Bugs headlined a sold out Tivoli joined by mates Dear Seattle, Beddy Rays, Sly Withers, Hope D, The Buoys, TOWNS, RAAVE TAPES, and many more.

Australia rallied behind their debut album Self Help (2019), voting bouncy hit single ‘Seriously’ into triple j’s Hottest 200 list. Their ever-iconic Like A Version cover of Mallrat’s ‘Charlie’ broke into the Hottest 100 the following year at #91, and came in at #25 in 2023’s Hottest 100 Like A Versions of all time.
