Direct from Tokyo to Launceston, Japanese heavy psych/stoner rock band Bahboon is heading to Tassie for the first of four Australian shows in early 2025!
Local three-piece proto-metal revival band Spooky Eyes and Hobart-based psych rock ensemble GlitchCraft will be joining them for this pre-party, before they all head south for Fuzz Island Fest!

Formed in 2013, Bahboon's earlier sound was layered with elements of alternative/garage rock and punk, their most recent album, Thunder Ape is much heavier in nature, with influences ranging from psychedelic rock, blues, doom and even dub. Outside of Japan, the band has played shows in Korea, the UK and first toured Australia back in 2018, sharing the stage with the likes of Radio Moscow (USA) and Hobo Magic.
Spooky Eyes is a three-piece proto-metal revival band based in Lutruwita/Tasmania. Their sound is rooted in the blues and rock of the early 60s and 70s, blending the soul of Hound Dog Taylor and Howlin’ Wolf with the power and heaviness of Blue Cheer and Sabbath.
GlitchCraft is a Tasmanian psych rock ensemble known for their captivating fusion of rock, metal, punk, and jazz. With an ever-evolving sound that pushes boundaries, they've built a reputation for delivering immersive, high-energy performances.
