HAMMERS – Death Wobbles Album Tour

Tickets $20 + BF or $25 on the Door
Doors Open 7pm
18+ event

Gold Coast heavies HAMMERS announce the commencement of a rolling tour campaign, in celebration of the release of their long-awaited debut album DEATH WOBBLES, due out on Friday 23 January 2026 via Summerland Records.
The DEATH WOBBLES album tour will see the band kick-off with a string of dates along the eastern seaboard of Australia, performing the new tracks for the very first time.
3 years in the making, DEATH WOBBLES is an album steeped in post-hardcore and alternative metal flavours and marks a significant progression for HAMMERS, both sonically and spiritually. The group push their own creative boundaries and the very confines of what it means to be a heavy, Australian band in the 21st century with big riffs, emotive hooks, screams, grooves and that signature HAMMERS ratbag mentality.
Firmly flying the flag for the Australian independent music community, HAMMERS’ uncompromising wares have continually transcended any roadblocks in their way, striking an unforgettable balance between flippant fun and searing substance without sacrificing genuine craftsmanship. Equally in-demand onstage as they are for their diverse sonic smorgasbord, HAMMERS ticked off their first international tour in 2024, headlining in New Zealand and Japan, and have previously shared stages with the likes of He Is Legend, Cog, Mammal, and The Butterfly Effect, as well as their own renowned headline shows
Catch the band live this March/April as they celebrate the release of the new album in raucous fashion, with supports for all shows to be announced.
Lesser
Friday 1st may
$10 Entry @ Door
Doors open 7pm
Lesser is a 4-piece melodic metalcore band from Coffs Harbour, known for their high-energy live performances and raw aggression. The members are Cam Schenk (Vocals), Joe Walsh (guitar), Pete Crawford (bass) and Jack Campbell (Drums). Formed in 2024, the band’s first EP, “CRISIS” blends heavy metalcore riffs with atmospheric synth and hard-hitting breakdowns. Their new album, “Doomsday Dreamer” is set to be released in April 2026. The singles from the album demonstrate a relentless, modern, and unapologetically heavy sound. Lesser represents the next wave of metalcore—unbound by genre and built to shake stages.
