'Live Fridays' @ Buddy's
Friday night, Buddy's in Newtown turns into the ultimate hub for live, original music

Australia’s own Father Deer Hands are hitting the road in support of their new EP “Choke on Dirt as It Greets You” — a raw, dust-in-the-mouth descent into grief, renewal, and the beautiful mess in between. With some of their strongest material yet, the band are bringing a refreshed sound and plenty of heart to every stop on the tour.

The live show is where it all comes together. Expect a high-energy set, tight performances, and a room that feels genuinely connected. Father Deer Hands bring an atmosphere that’s loud, welcoming, and easy to get swept up in — whether you’re there to scream along or just soak it all in.

Sydney Heavyweights Irken Armada will join Father Deer Hands on the tour.

Upstairs at Buddy's!
