SOAK : DUST

SOAK: Live at the Baths transforms Newcastle's beloved Ocean Baths into an intimate concert venue across five sunset performances during New Annual.  

Post-punk quintet dust represents the next wave of exciting home grown Newcastle music. Fresh from a huge UK and European tour supporting the iconic NYC based band Interpol and selling out shows all over the country at home, dust will be performing a special pre launch of their new upcoming album due out on Oct 10. All-female post-punk band Limo opens the night with their own fierce energy. This is Newcastle music at its most exciting – raw, authentic, and ready to make waves far beyond our shores.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Formed in 2020, dust is made up of vocalists and guitarists Gabriel Stove and Justin Teale, bassist Liam Smith, guitarist and saxophonist Adam Ridgway, and drummer Kye Cherry. Offering a contemporary take on Australian post-punk, along with elements of experimental jazz and electronic music, they have curated a sound that is as dark, introspective and angular as it is powerful and progressive. Since the release of their EP, the band has expanded their fanbase beyond their Australian roots with headline shows across the UK and Europe, playing well known festivals like London's Pitchfork Festival and London Calling in Amsterdam in 2023. This is while also touring relentlessly in Australia, supporting acts such as DZ Deathrays, Press Club & Trophy Eyes and international acts like Slowdive, Interpol & Bloc Party.
