Adelaide Fringe offers some exceptional music events, with Heavy Artillery being at the top of the list of must-attend shows.
Held at The Gov on Saturday, March 15, experience a night of good old-fashioned rock ‘n’ roll featuring three of South Australia’s top acts, headlined by British-inspired heavy rockers Loaded Billy.
The electric five-piece have been in the studio working on the follow-up to their critically acclaimed album, Legend, and are pumped to get back on stage and unleash their new material.
“We are so excited to get back out there playing live because we are very much a live band,” Loaded Billy said in a statement. “We feed off our fans and the energy we create when playing our songs that create that arena rock soundscape. As we say it’s toe tappin’, head banging riff driven pleasure.”
Loaded Billy will be joined by support acts The Sexels and Terra Axis. The Sexels are a hard rocking quartet inspired by Amyl And The Sniffers and Black Sabbath while Terra Axis will take you back to the halcyon days of ‘90s grunge with their powerhouse sound.
Tickets for Heavy Artillery are on sale now via Adelaide Fringe.
