Felons Barrel Room's grand opening kicks off this weekend with 3 iconic homegrown acts christening the stage from Friday Dec 5-Sunday Dec 7!
Second night, welcomes iconic Mental as Anything 🔥
The Australian New Wave and rock outfit who’ve been shaping the soundtrack since the late ’70s, releasing a steady run of albums, singles and delightfully offbeat music videos. Often likened to the British band Madness, the Mentals share that same quirky, ironic humour and strong visual identity — all delivered with a distinctly Australian twist.
Their songs are built on bright, catchy melodies and razor-sharp lyrics, always threaded with their signature irony, satire and self-deprecating charm. Few bands capture the spirit of Australian suburbia quite like them, and their good-time, tongue-in-cheek energy has cemented them as one of the country’s most unmistakably “Australian” rock groups.
