Bad Batch Zine Presents a blistering night of Aussie Rock ‘n’ Roll in the BC Bandroom, Saturday 11th April, 2026 featuring W.O.M.B.A.T + G-String Nicotine + Kitty Mustang. Melbourne’s (W.O.M.B.A.T) Waste of Money, Brains and Time deliver a chaotic mix of rock ‘n’ roll swagger and punk energy, balancing rough-edged guitars with surprisingly catchy hooks. Their debut EP Inbrace introduced a fast, guitar-driven style shaped by the contemporary Melbourne rock and punk scene. On stage, W.O.M.B.A.T bring a loud, loose, high-energy show built around big riffs, attitude and a sense that anything could happen next. Geelong outfit G-String Nicotine specialise in loud, distorted rock that leans heavily into a punk attitude delivering a solid stage presence and tongue-in-cheek stage aesthetic. The band are building an ever growing fanbase developing some original tunes to go with their blistering cover set. Fronted by the charismatic Kitty (Saskia), Kitty Mustang fuse indie rock attitude with grooves pulled from jazz-fusion, classic rock and modern alternative influences. Their sound moves easily between tight rhythm sections, melodic guitar lines and a cool, groove-driven feel with a live performance that stands out in the Melbourne indie scene. This will be a ripper night of Oz Rock at The BC for a very special Bad Batch Zine Celebration! Presale Tix $20 + b/f / Door $25 Doors 7:30pm

Since releasing her career defining album DEAR JOHN in 2022, Sam Buckingham has built a cult like following on the Australian live circuit.

She’s Woodford, Wild Village Queenscliff Music Festivals Festival of Small Halls. Beautiful Machine with Australian-born Nashville-based producer Clare ‘LOLLIES’ Reynolds. Beautiful Machine couch in her underwear and on long drives to see her family (while someone else was driving, of course). They mark a new chapter in her songwriting career, and in her life. I’ve been falling deeper in love with my body and the Earth In a time when we’re seemingly obsessed with building ‘bigger and better’ technology, all I can think about is how the natural world is so brilliantly designed — it’s the most beautiful machine we’ll ever have. So, this album is a love letter to myself, my body, the earth and all of humanity. As we keep progressing, my only wish is that we remember we ARE the natural world — and we must care for ourselves and each other accordingly. Influenced by the lyrical honesty of Jensen McRae, Brandi Carlisle & Ani DiFranco, the anthemic energy of Maggie Rogers, and the rhythmic flow of artists like LaRussell and Connor Price, Sam’s unique sensibility for marrying poetry with pop shines as she effortlessly weaves her personal truth into the fabric of the global zeitgeist. Beautiful Machine DEAR JOHN Cyclone Quiet Revolution these stunning new songs to life. “Masterful songwriting” “Iconic” Powerful “Byron Bay's next big thing”
