Bird’s Robe has long been a launchpad for some of Australia’s most acclaimed post-rock and progressive artists, including **sleepmakeswaves, We Lost The Sea, Closure in Moscow, Toehider, Meniscus, The Crooked Fiddle Band, Troldhaugen**, and **Solkyri**, among others.

Across its 15-year journey, the label has promoted more than **1,500 live shows** and released over **200 records**, including **five ARIA-nominated albums** and **seven #1 releases on the Australian Independent Charts**. Its catalogue has collectively amassed **over 50 million streams**, underscoring the label’s impact both locally and internationally.

Director Mike Solo says:

  

_Ten years ago, on Saturday 5 December in 2015, a bunch of bands playing post-rock, prog, metal and alternative rock got together at Manning Bar in Sydney, Australia to celebrate the 5th anniversary of Bird’s Robe Records.  It was awesome._

  

_Since then, we’ve crossed the globe many more times, survived a global pandemic and come out the other side with even more talent to showcase from our little niche.  So please join us to relive the memories, create new ones & celebrate an epic ride of prog, post rock, and otherwise innovative music with our friends & family._

  

_If you’ve never had the chance to see some of these bands, we hope our efforts to bring them all together in the one place make for a worthy day/night of entertainment._

  

_Enjoy!_
