It’s been almost exactly a year since Middle Kids last played in Melbourne, and their success since has been nothing short of spectacular. Coming off an international tour with Jimmy Eat World and now celebrating their third album Faith Crisis Pt 1, the Sydney trio played a spectacular show in the wake of their latest release.
Frontwoman Hannah Joy revelled in the Forum crowd’s energy, laughing throughout a great set. Mia Wray delivered a soulful starter support set to the restless punters. For highlights “Stacking Chairs” and “Dramamine” were standouts of the gig, with “Bootleg Firecracker” accompanied by stunning (and aptly timed) pyrotechnic flairs.
Eloise Coomber was there to capture it all.
