Immerse yourself in a tribute to Australian Progressive Metal, showcasing songs from Caligula’s Horse, Karnivool, Plini, and Twelve Foot Ninja.

Led by drummer Riley Stansfield, this gig will shine light on the various colours and styles in Australia’s prog metal scene. From lush and smooth harmonies, to heart wrenching vocals and long anxious builds to some of the heaviest djenting out there. 

The band line-up includes some of Hobart’s heaviest and coolest players, featuring Will Mooney, Ryan Dowsley, Michael Chater, Logan Stiglic, and Christopher Jensen.
