Humbletone '25 is a mini indie, post-punk, psychedelic and post-rock festival featuring Svntax Error, Same Therapy, Last Motel and Broken Hearts Brigade.

SVNTAX ERROR
Theremin fuelled & guitar laden indie psychedelic post-rock for the apocalypse. Svntax Error’s music is created through the clashing of disparate influences in improvisation, leading to either harsh combustion or new & strange musical mutations. The music blurs spontaneity with composition, melody with noise, chaos with structure, light with shade.
Formed in 2016, Svntax Error have released two albums 'Message' and 'The Vanishing Existence’, and have just finished mixing their third, as yet untitled album, all released through Australian indie label Bird’s Robe Records. They have toured the Australian East Coast with Japanese post rock legends MONO and Swiss band Hubris, and performed at Belgium’s seminal Dunk! Festival alongside the cream of instrumental, post and experimental rock.
‘Drawing influences from Mogwai, The Cure, Nick Cave, The Dirty Three and more, the Sydney-based band have earned a reputation for thrilling sonic explorations making use of hypnotic grooves, wailing theremins and of course, a post-rockers penchant for delay pedals.’
- Jacopo Vigezzi, Progressive Rock Journal
‘Brilliant, creative, beautifully atmospheric and dripping with talent.’
- Les Chatwin, Uncle Les Talks Music

SAME THERAPY
The SaMe THeRaPy are an original 3 piece Sydgong band, who wish to evoke in the listener 'a sonic recollection of your record collection,' with their twin guitar 'after post-punk' approach.
If your vinyl/CD/cassette/stream has ever included bands like Wire, The Velvets, early Bowie, Syd's Floyd, Built To Spill, Pavement, The Clean, Bailter Space, Joy Division, Swervedriver or Television, you may find some common ground with ST (if not, you'll soon catch on!).
ST are not a 'Paint By Numbers' rock band. Their guitar based sound ranges from electric to acoustic to in between: singer / songwriter territory, that may suddenly lurch towards the abstract and fragmentary. They aim for guitar based grooves and compositions that deal with Loud Quiet Loud aspects of being: existential dilemmas, meaning, loss, surrealism, techno alienation and repair.

LAST MOTEL
Last Motel are an enigmatic post-punk band from Sydney, Australia, that walk the tightrope between rapture and ruin, plumbing the depths whilst aspiring heavenward.

THE BROKEN HEARTS BRIGADE
The Broken Hearts Brigade are Geoff, Tom and Bon, playing indie rock songs written by Geoff on guitar, bass, drums and sometimes glockenspiel. You may know us as members of el Mopa, Decoder Ring, A Gold Star Secret, the Cannanes, Lustre 4, Juno Point, Gypsy, Tronics, and assorted solo ventures.
