Concrete Gold has kept things loud in the music scene with their sound that can only be described as a lovechild of 90s alternative rock and modern Australian indie. Influenced by the likes of ‘Violent Soho’ ‘The Strokes’, and ‘Foo Fighters’, their performances consist of hard-hitting drums, walls of guitar, unrelenting bass, and catchy hooks and screams. The band played ‘Byron Music Fest’ and supported rock legends ‘Wolfmother’ and ‘You Am I’. Concrete Gold is here to supply a dosage of high volume levels, riffs, and energy.
