The gig is a Sailor Jerry initiative to "support your local", and comes on the eve of the surf-pop-rock group touring Europe and the UK for the first time since prior to the pandemic.

No doubt their free gig will include fun faves from their latest album Brain Candy, alongside a slew of new tracks they've been working on, in a venue reminiscent of their early gigs at the now defunct Rad Bar.

"Support Ya Local will be a very special free show in the most intimate setting the boys have played in years," organisers said.
