Sex Mask, Horse and Blue Diner. are to set to take over The Balcony at the Cooly Hotel (Gold Coast) for a huge night of post-punk and alternative sounds.

Joining them from down south are Horse (Muloobinba/Newcastle), bringing a punchy, no-frills take on post-punk and indie, with urgent vocals and relentless momentum.

Blue Diner. (Magandjin/Brisbane) blend atmospheric, dream-gaze textures with moody melodies and explosive bursts of energy.
