Brisbane Powerhouse at New Farm is celebrating it's 10th Birthday this Sunday and as part of a day of free events and celebrations two of Brisbane's best bands will be taking to the stage.
Regurgitator need no introductions, being one of Brisbane's most high profile bands of the past fifteen years. The genre-blending outfit started out way back in 1994, storming the alternative music scene with numbers like I Sucked a Lot of Cock To Get Where I Am. Along with the attitude, Regurgitator were blessed with highly charismatic frontman Quan Yeomans. Warner snapped them up for a multi-album deal and soon the boys from Brisbane were sharing stages with Beck, the Chili Peppers and the Prodigy.
Regurgitator hit their peak in 1998 when Polyester Girl - their biggest-selling single - helped push the album Unit to sales of 240,000-plus. They joined Midnight Oil for an anti-uranium mine demonstration at Jabiluka, toured Japan several times and headed to England's Reading Festival. The band has been quieter in recent years but will no doubt draw a considerable crowd this Sunday.
Indie-popster's Last Dinosaurs are one of Brisbane's best and brightest young bands. Having just released their debut EP in February the band's appeal is growing fast thanks to their spritely, youthful sound.
