Catch Perth alt-rockers LATE 90s, emerging as one of the most exciting acts out of WA over the last 3 years with the release of a series of fierce and emotive tracks. They carried this momentum with the release of their debut EP ‘Everything Is Closer Than It Seems’, solidifying them as one of the best acts in the Perth music scene. With national and international success through Radio play on BBC Radio 1 being described as “The biggest band in pop-punk that you need to get behind” by Nels Hylton (BBC Radio 1’s Future Alternative), as well as airtime on Triple J and Triple J Unearthed, it is only a matter of time until they become a household name in the worldwide Alt-Rock scene. Their new track ‘Respawn’ is a continued marker of their rising prowess as songwriters. Inspired by a constant fear of failure, second guessing decisions & the sense of dread that comes along with it, the band wrote ‘Respawn’ as a way to shed the anxious energy that was surrounding them, the track ending with a feeling of optimism. LATE 90s continue to expand their voice throughout the track, their sound growing more defined with every release.
Supporting them are two bold and energetic upcoming acts also residing in Boorloo/Perth; Vacate Palace and Foothead!! These two should absolutely be on your radar and to give your playlist some good company. Maybe you caught them at The Big Gig back in August… DO NOT miss the chance to see The Next Best, First!!
