Crowbar have announced a run of shows to celebrate the venue’s birthday, running across late November into early December 2024. The run will kick off with a performance from WAAX, who played their final shows as a band in June 2023 before being revived as a solo project four months later by frontwoman Maz DeVita. It will be the project’s first Australian show since DeVita relocated to Los Angeles.
“We can’t think of a better, or more fitting way, to kick off our 12th birthday than with WAAX,” the venue shared in a statement. “Maz unapologetically infuses her Italian passion with Aussie grit, performing in all her power after a renewed creative awakening. We are ready to be served the[ir] raw, thunderous punk sound.”
WAAX – ‘Same Same’
Other artists that are set to play at Crowbar include Tropical Fuck Storm, who are playing the venue for the very first time, as well as the Cosmic Psychos – who have not only previously played both Crowbar Sydney and its original Brisbane locale in the Fortitude Valley, but also played at Crowbar Sydney back when it was called the Bald Faced Stag. The full line-up for the birthday week is below.
Crowbar’s birthday week last year, which ran from November 23rd to November 26th, featured shows from Ruby Fields, Highly Suspect, GBH, Miles Away and Bad//Dreems.
