Last year, The Music Gallery saw Brisbane quartet The Last Dinosaurs and electronic act Panama co-headlining the roster that featured 17 local and international acts. It also welcomed French indie veterans Tahiti 80 in 2015.
Earlier this week HONNE announced their debut show in Bangkok scheduled for March 7. Tickets went on sale today (Jan 30) and reportedly sold out in an hour.
