Jynx House: AMPLIFIED, February 2022

Festivals in Australia during the Age of COVID have suffered through some staggered starts. Through border closures, lockdowns, and so many regulation & rule changes, it really is a miracle that some have persevered, pushed through and gone ahead.

Jynx House: AMPLIFIED was one such festival. Two false starts, but luckily, third time was a charm. The sun came out (albeit a bit of a sprinkle broke through), and the decks were on fire with some of the hottest DJs & Producers both locally, and around Australia spinning epic tunes.

Sunshine Sounds Festival, Eumundi, May 1 & 2

First faced with the possibility of no dancing and other Covid regulations, then chuck in some rather unpredictable weather, Sunshine Sounds Festival appeared to be overly optimistic by name only.

BUT…

Despite all this, the inaugural Sunshine Sounds kicked in to gear in Eumundi over the first weekend of May, and showcased a phenomenal, diverse line-up featuring Kate Miller-Heidke, Katie Noonan, Busby Marou, Andrea Kirwin (on her album launch), Band of Frequencies, Sahara Beck. Miiesha, The Dreggs, Pink Matter, Jack Carty, Cigany Weaver, Asha Jefferies, The Feral Cats of Tokyo, The Dawn Light, Lydia Fairhall, Mark Moroney, Sarah King and Georgia Corowa.
