No Years

It's around about now that young revelers start asking the big questions. Like "How did you bring in the New Year the year the 2012 Apocalypse was due to hit?" and "Will there be Zombies? Do you organize before they rise?" No Years has all the answer as the boutique festival at Brisbane Powerhouse returns to see in 2012 with a massive line up of indie music, art and installations.

	Dum Dum Girls No Years is pleased to reveal that the DUM DUM GIRLS will be filling the turbine room with their signature blend of the girl-gang eyeliner punk of the Shangri-Las, the trashy propulsion of the Cramps, and the moody atmospherics of Mazzy Star. Hailing from California, Dum Dum Girls have amassed mountains of touring time off the back of their debut LP, "I Will Be". With their sophomore release "Only In Dreams" the all girl four-piece combine 60s pop sensibility with a 90s punk ethic.			The Holidays THE HOLIDAYS have cut a swathe across the globe, with stints in the USA and UK, playing Las Vegas with Cee Lo Green and The Ting Tings, blowing away SXSW.

Their 'Post Paradise' was lauded in Australia, winning The Australian Music Prize Red Bull Award for Best Debut Album. They will be giving festive frolickers a reason to celebrate this New Years.
