Deathrays V-Room into town

NOOSA will play host to one of Australia’s biggest names in rock next week, when DZ Deathrays hit the latest live music hot spot on the Sunshine Coast – The V Room.
Launching loudly on Friday 23 September, this new Villa Noosa band room will feature a 500 capacity room with full line array production and a professional lighting rig.
It will be one of only a couple of venues on the Sunshine Coast to be in the market to host the biggest names in Australian music.
Venue booker Christian Tryhorn of Beats Cartel says they have some great acts lined up over the next few months.
“There can never be enough live original music in town and we’re certainly excited to be associated with what will be one of the standout venues in the area,” Christian said.
“The launch will be epic,” he said.
The headlining act for the launch, DZ Deathrays have risen to become one of the standout young acts in the country.
They have performed at the Reading Festival, SXSW and the Falls Festival along with supporting the likes of the Foo Fighters and Band of Skulls.
Simon Ridley, drummer from DZ Deathrays said the band had experienced many highlights so far, including the Foo Fighters shows, meeting Jack Black and winning two ARIA awards.
“We’re very appreciative of it but at the end of the day people don’t remember bands because of the awards they’ve won, they remember bands by the material they put out.
“There are so many great Aussie rock bands coming up – all you gotta do is go down to your local pub and support one of them by giving them a few claps and maybe offer to buy the drummer a beer,” Simon said.
