After a 20-year hiatus, the legendary slackabilly surf trio The Tommys are back and better than
ever. Ollie Laurie (Exotics) Jonathan Lickliter (Died Pretty) and Rob Lastdrager (T Bones) left
audiences wanting more with their’ first album “Grow Fins” in 2000 and the follow up single
“Chastity Melts” recorded live and dirty at the Old Bar in 2004. Reforming for Garage Fest 2024
they survived a tour of duty in Cambodia and now they’re thrilling audiences in Melbourne and
Sydney once more with their tsunami of lo-fi garage surf grooves. Don’t miss the launch of their
red vinyl 45 single, Born to Follow / Window Pane on Saturday June 7 th , 4-6pm at the Old Bar,
Johnston St Fitzroy.
Special guests The Kreep 500 will deliver savage howls with garage nous. A duo far beyond the
sum of its parts: think Cramps, Scientists, Reigning Sound. Their debut album sold out in
months. Album#2 due late 2025 on Groovie (Europe) & Off The Hip locally. Not to be missed!!
