Joining the likes of Thirsty Merc, Jessica Mauboy and the McClymonts, Melbourne indie pop sensation Little Red are bringing their infectious tunes to Australia Day Live.

Having previously played at the ANU Bar, the boys are looking forward to returning and belting out some of their biggest hits, including crowd favourite Rock It off latest album, Midnight Remember.

“Rock It always gets the best reception,” says Tom Hartney (vocals, percussion). “We’ve never experienced anything like it before. When we start playing it the crowd goes bananas!”

Transit Bar welcomes hip-hop back in 2011 with a special album fundraiser event for local hip-hop legend Omar Musa.

Following sporadic collaborations during university in California, Omar Musa and friend Mighty Joe completed a successful Indonesian tour and decided to form hip-hop duo MoneyKat.
