Power to You
With a focus on female driven performances within heavier genres, the night is set to electrify audiences with some of Melbourne’s finest, crash hot, up-and-coming artists.

Queers to the Front
Leaps and Bounds Festival and Bad Decisions present QUEERS TO THE FRONT!

Dawn of the Dad
At first there was rock, then there was Dad-rock. The Fitzroy Pinnacle is proud to present Dawn of the Dad, a dad-rock themed mini-fest featuring some of Naarm’s favourite queer, femme and gender-non conforming artists.
Time to dust off ya New Balances, fire up the BBQ and grab us a beer out of fridge will ya mate? Dad-Rock is taking over the Pinnacle on Saturday 2nd July with the help of Zig Zag, Hearts and Rockets, Laura Imbruglia (duo), Tali Mahoney and Loveboner, all of whom will be taking the Pinny stage to play their favourite dad-rock banger. We’re talking Steely Dan, a bit o’ Dire Straits, whatever makes you wanna grab the fish fingers out of the freezer and pretend to resent the family cat.
Is that “Does it look like I’m made out of money?!” we hear? Never fear, Dawn of the Dad is free! A free event in this economy? Bargain! See you at the pub.
