Ivy League’s Big Birthday Bashes

Last weekend I reported that Sydney indie label Ivy League is celebrating its tenth anniversary with a huge compilation CD. Some massive birthday concerts were rumoured, but I can now confirm the speculations are true.

The Metro will host two Ivy League birthday gigs in November. The ever reclusive rockers The Vines will make a rare performance to headline the show on November 2. Youth Group, The Silents, The Monarchs, and Hoolahan will also play that night.

The party will continue on November 3, when Josh Pyke, Red Riders, 78 Saab, The City Lights and Peabody take to the stage.

So get your tickets through The Metro and join in the celebrations!

Happy Birthday Ivy League!

A killer roster and a great deal of heart have helped indie label Ivy League reach its tenth birthday. To celebrate the milestone the Sydney record company will release a very special compilation, Ten Years in the Trenches.

The album, which spans the label’s history, will feature tracks by some of the biggest artists including The Vines, Youth Group, Red Riders, Josh Pyke, 78 Saab, The City Lights, and The Mess Hall.

It will also include a brand new song, “Out of My Hands,” performed by the all-star Ivy Regiment Band. This Ivy League supergroup features Josh Pyke, Youth Group’s Tony Martin and Patrick Matthews, 78 Saab’s Ben Nash, The Vines’ Hamish Rosser, Red Riders’ Adrian Deutsch, and Neon’s Josh Bitmead. That’s some line-up!

Ten Years in the Trenches hits stores on October 20. Rumour has it an Ivy League concert will celebrate the release, so stay tuned for more details on that!
