The Melbourne-based Split System, featuring members from Downstage favorites like Stiff Richards and Bad//Dreems, only came to life during the lockdowns but play live shows as if they’ve been around for years. Their raw street punk and classic pub rock have made them popular both in Australia and internationally, and they’ve already toured with bands like Amyl & The Sniffers and Cosmic Psychos.

Support act Twisted Teens (USA) hails from New Orleans and breaks with punk genre conventions on their chaotic, energetic albums. In doing so, they’ve established themselves as one of the most original bands in the contemporary DIY punk scene.
