Rain Factory and Friends play some covers....
Rain Factory are a Melbourne based quartet that independently released 2 albums and 3 EP's between 1990-1998. They play traditional rock with an alternative leaning that is resplendent with big guitar riffs and melodies. Their CD's and live performances received impressive reviews from the local press including, Rolling Stone, Juke, Juice, In Press and Beat Magazines, prompting one reviewer to sum up the band's soundscape as "a hybrid noise which could best be described as U2 meets Hunters & Collectors with Midnight Oil spunk" . Australia's preeminent youth station Triple J rated the single 'Solitude' in the Top 100 of their summer playlist in 1992. After a long break, the band made an explosive return to the live scene in March and now bring their anthemic and emotive brand of rock to Musicland. Come and discover the honesty, passion and the power of Australia's longest serving independent band. www.rainfactory.com.au
