Head on down to the Surf Coast's favourite live music venue, Torquay Hotel, this month for the most tantalising and trance-filled entertainment.
Since its reinvigoration, the Torquay Hotel has housed hundreds of incredible Australian and international talent. From The Smith Street Band to Orange County indie giants The Growlers, the diversity of Torquay Hotel’s live music program is unparalleled on the Surf Coast and this month is no different.
Having started the month strong with a mighty reunion performance of rock royalty with Jebediah in support of their new album OIKS on Friday 2 August, the 90’s and early 2000’s were in celebration as the act made their way through a melting pot set of old and new material. Adding to the enticement was their playing-partnership with Geelong homegrown icons Magic Dirt, oozing with nostalgia and saluting the Aussie Rock flag.
Let’s see what else the Torquay Hotel has cooking this month.
