The amazing Out Of Control Army are heading to Australia for the very first time this October for an explosive national tour presented by Focus Group Music and Ska Nation.

Formed in Mexico City in 2014, Out Of Control Army have become one of the most exciting bands in the international ska scene. Fusing classic Jamaican ska roots, punk energy, Latin fire and powerhouse brass arrangements, the band has built a reputation for unforgettable live performances and a rapidly growing worldwide following. Their music combines sharp musicianship, infectious rhythm and the kind of crowd connection that turns every show into a celebration.

Australian audiences may already know of the band through their 2024 Mexican tour with Melbourne Ska Orchestra, a successful run that helped spark their desire to tour Australia. A special recording from that tour is set for release to coincide with these long-awaited Australian dates.

Expect massive brass lines, dancefloor rhythms, singalongs, punk spirit and the joyful energy that only ska can deliver. This is a rare chance to catch one of Mexico’s finest live bands on their debut Australian visit, backed by one of Australia’s best.

Do not miss the amazing Out Of Control Army with special guests Loonee Tunes & Operation Jake BossTone this October.

THE GIVING GIG | VOLUME THREE

Some battles don't end when service does.

For many Australian veterans, PTSD isn't something that disappears when they come home. It can affect relationships, families, sleep, employment and everyday life. Far too many veterans continue to fight their toughest battles in silence.

That's why The Giving Gig Volume Three exists.

Join the Rising Sun Charity Band at Sooki Lounge, Belgrave on Sunday 25th October 2026 for an afternoon of live music with a purpose. Every song, every donation and every person in the room helps us continue supporting Australian veterans and their families when they need it most.

This is more than a gig. It's a chance to stand alongside those who stood up for us.

Ivan Aristeguieta- READY TO MAMBO

Get ready to groove like it's 1979 with Australia’s hottest Yacht Rock tribute

sensation. The Yachtski Brothers bring the smooth rock era of the ’70s and ’80s

roaring back to life with their powerhouse musicianship and irresistible charm.

From a gentle sway of yacht, to an energetic beat of rock, these buoys do it all.

Known for their explosive high energy performances combining West Coast grooves

and funk-fuelled dance floor anthems. This is a stage show bursting with charisma

and magnetic stage presence.

Forget what you think you know about tribute bands. The Yachtski Brothers are a

new generation of performers. Young, sharp and moving in perfect sync. Rocking

authentic vintage threads straight from your dad's wardrobe (but somehow pulling it

off better). The Brothers keep it tight, stylish and packed with party energy that

never drops.

Delivering a show that's as visually slick as it is sonically smooth. Dock your yachts

and jump on board with what crowd's can't get enough of.

Presenting, The Yachtski Brothers.. You're welcome.

Featuring music from:

-Toto

-The Doobie Brothers

-Hall & Oates

-Christopher Cross

-Steely Dan

-Kool & The Gang
