WAMFest Live Friday announces first 32 acts
This year’s WAMFest Live Friday is a free live music program hosted in the City of Perth, with 10+ stages all flowing off the main Murray Street strip.
Amplifier Capitol will be a major port for the evening, with WAMFest acts taking over every inch of the indoor-outdoor multi-level music haunt.
Set across four stages will be a host of WA alternative, grunge, punk and indie-rock bands alongside soloists.
Other venues include The Sewing Room, Rubix Bar, The Belgium Beer Café and Wesley Church.
WAMFest co-coordinator Simon “Skinny” O’Leary said, “We’re really happy to be presenting a completely free WAMFest Live program this year, and look forward to showcasing some of the best venues and live acts in Australia.”
