A night of Electro swing in Hobart

Blending horns, synths, violin, vocals, and saxophone, Mortisville & Friends have carved out a truly singular sound—melding the pulse of techno and bass house with a carnivalesque explosion of live instrumentation. Their sets weave in elements of vintage remix, electro-swing, and jazz, erupting into a flamboyant, high-energy spectacle that has captivated audiences at festivals like Esoteric, Rainbow Serpent, Glastonbury, Boomtown, WOMAD, and Symbiosis.

Since bursting onto the scene at Rainbow Serpent in 2012, MAF have evolved with unrestrained flair, claiming the legendary 2am Saturday slot on the Playground Stage as their own. Eamon Armstrong of fest300.com described them as having “the raucous energy of a house party at the end of the universe”—a fitting tribute to their ever-mutating style and euphoric stage presence. Expect to shed your worries, lose track of time, and be swept up in a euphoric fusion of pounding beats and theatrical live performance as they launch you into a whole new dimension.
