Live Original Artists
Our Bands
The embers
The Embers have become one of Tasmania’s most sought-after live bands attracting a diverse crowd not often seen in the same room together. The 5 piece blends a heady mix of reggae, funk and dance all wrapped up in a kicking high tempo live show. It doesn’t matter who you are or what floats your boat, if you catch the group’s live show then you’re going to find something to connect to.
the labcoat fiasco
Hailing from Launceston, The Labcoat Fiasco is a genre-defying sonic experiment gone beautifully wrong. The band blends a chaotic mix of alt-rock, indie-pop, and post-punk weirdness with a scientist's precision and a madman's flair. Think raw guitars, off-kilter rhythms, and lyrics that teeter between absurdity and revelation.
The night Garden
Festival favourites from George 2024, The Night Garden bring a frenetic energy to their three piece punk set. Mixing it up this year with a couple of original songs thrown in to showcase their burgeoning talents.
J Hanson Trio
Konrad, this bands drummer assures me that they are fully shit hot band that will melt faces and blow minds. He just neglected to supply a band bio or an image. So here is a random stock image of a lady practicing how to hug an imaginary person
dusty rusty
A modern day troubadour who will spirit you away on a journey of storytelling. Blending the art of a good yarn with incredible musical talent, Dusty Rusty is the worlds next massive artist... the world just hasn't realised yet.
Spooky Eyes
Erupting through the streets of Launceston comes Spooky Eyes, the loudest band in Tasmania/Lutruwita, punishing ears with their eclectic brand of amplified psychedelic blues. Beginning in 2022 with the release of Leaves, Spooky Eyes started as a solo recording project of vocalist/guitarist and lead songwriter Jude Hastings and quickly morphed into an exhilarating live show, swapping out jangly chords and synthesizer for fuzz laden riffs and a thumping rhythm section. Joined by childhood friends Jaxon Bassett on drums and partner in crime Piper Rayner on bass guitar, Spooky Eyes will quickly become your next favourite band
Crowd funding with a difference
Help us build a bigger brewery!
We don’t like traditional crowd funding. We flipped the model on its head. We bring the crowd to us, throw them a banger of a party and all proceeds go towards our brewery build.
Manchild Brewing have operated in St Helens since 2020. Demand for our beer has quickly outgrown our ability to supply so we need to grow.
10x the beer
We just need a shed
We have already secured all of the breing equipment to 10x our production size. Now we need to get a shed build to make it operational
More Power
With great beer comes great power...requirements.
A large part of the brewery build cost is upgrading the power supply to the property. While you are at the concert you will see our old power pole. It needs to go and be replaced with all underground 3 phase power.
