Event Details

After touring the UK opening for Jonny Craig, and a coastal NSW tour with Seth Sentry earlier this year, Somber Hills is finally heading to Sydney for his debut headline show. Celebrating the release of his new project “Pain Station” (out July 27) with a curated lineup of artists who embody the sounds behind the high energy and genre-bending body of work, Somber will be joined by special guests Besties (DJ set), Neon Belly, Shinji, Dorkk.

If there’s one thing Somber Hills wants you to know about him, it’s that he’s all about energy. With influences as broad as Paramore to Radiohead to Travis Scott, he manages to blend every musical inspiration he’s ever had into punchy alt-rap/rock songs that make you want to move. Whether in angst or in ecstasy, the result is undeniable - Somber Hills’ music is made to connect people, whether it’s in a pit moshing or at a house party, dancing under a haze of smoke. With his forthcoming music, expect all this and more - moments of 100 gecs-esque hyperpop, and waves of his often dark lyricism buoyed with punchy blink-182 brattiness.

We acknowledge that this event is held on the stolen lands of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. We pay our respects to Elders, past, present and emerging. Sovereignty was never ceded.
