Night People...more like good night people...

Night People, we met yet again for a night that was glorious. Full of talented musicians that poured their heart and souls into their performances.

New to the streets, spoken word grunge band Incarnate. Fresh on the scene and a BIMM band challenging their inner grunge self. Incarnate, Spencer Mason (Vocals and Guitar), Joe Marsden (Bass), Cam Lowe (Guitarist) and former drummer of Orca Dan Wright.

What on earth is spoken word grunge? The only possible way to describe it, is slam poetry mixed in with a grungy musical background to it, with sound effects added. Although they are a fresh new band on the block, and are dialing down on their sound; this band were nothing short of incredible. A great way to start off the night, and certainly had the crowd pumped. One thing to note about this band is the attention to detail. For the very last song, Dan put on a gas mask to add to the authenticity of both the music and the bands aesthetic. It was striking and had the audience wanting more. It was insightful, meaningful, dark and the boys smashed it.

The Mards. Greatness, effortless and energetic. The three words that can describe each one of these members in every definition of the word. From the guitar riffs, to the dancey bass lines even to the punchy drums. Archie Gardiner (Vocals and Guitar), Adam Jackson (Guitar), Archie Wilkinson (Drums) and Ash Jarvis (Bass), these boys were pretty much the definition of alluring, energetic and pretty damn close to perfection.

It is not at all surprising that Ash and his booming bass were one and the same. The bass dancing king, with his on point dance moves and the fact that Ash has a lack of competition in this field, made it that more enjoyable; to watch him enjoy himself and vibe to the music, bass in hand. But there is one question that I need to pose to the audience and the fans of this incredible band... Which duo is better? On stage and even off stage, the duo's battle it out for who's the better pairing. We have Archie (W) and Ash, and then there's Archie (W) and Adam. Adam and Archie (G). Then finally Archie (G) and Ash. I know which duo I'm routing for, but the question is who is yours?

The boys set was highly enjoyable, and there was not a single static body in the crowd. It does not surprise me that there was not a static body in the crowd, because the band truly have an army behind them, and rightfully so. Another unbelievable performance from the boys, and a barrel of dancing, laughter and singing both from the band members on stage and the crowd.

Overall, a memorable night, of talented young artists that are some of BIMM's finest with their undying devotion to their art and a forever adapting technical style.
