This Sunday! Future Factory is here featuring
Ixaras, with special guests Maisy & SHIELD. All ages!
Doors 12:30pm at the Factory Floor. Ticket link in BIO

Ixaras is known for her euphoric live sets, razor-sharp lyricism, and unfiltered self-expression. With a sound that effortlessly merges bright pop hooks with raw punk energy, Ixaras delivers emotionally charged songs that explore the chaos of growing up, young love, and identity in a hyperconnected world.

ixaras is not just as an artist, she’s a community-builder.Through her all-ages DIY record label and event collective, Anti-Dismal, she champions safe, accessible spaces by throwing electrifying gigs in skateparks, community halls, and suburban backyards - redefining what the live music experience can look like for the next generation.

Maisy is a 17-year-old Eora-based rising independent indie-pop musician, who began her music career at a remarkably young age, releasing her debut single, “Retrograde,” when she was just 14 years old. Her signature sound blends intimate indie-pop and bedroom-pop textures, drawing comparisons to prominent modern artists like Billie Eilish, Clairo, Olivia Rodrigo, and Beabadoobee.

SHIELD is a young emerging local artist who at just 15 has already played King Street Summer Crawl, Futureproof 7 and gigged at multiple venues across town.

Catch this all teen lineup bursting with energy and talent this Sunday at Future Factory!

20/10/2026

Musette exists in a space between the ethereal and the visceral, blending a classical sensibility with a raw, gothic atmosphere. Drawing from the kookiness of baroque and art pop, she creates an unforgettable and unique environment on stage, fuelled by a deep passion for creating music which resonates with the unspoken and intimate emotions of her audience.

This edition of Friday Confessional with Musette promises an evocative, unmissable night of captivating music.

About the FUTURE FACTORY artists featuring this Sunday...
___________
Lara Buchanan makes music for late-night drives and quiet reckonings.

Based in Melbourne, the emerging singer-songwriter blends sharp rock edges with anthemic pop hooks, crafting a soundscape as vivid as it is raw.

Unpacking themes of nostalgia, existential dread, and the chaotic freedom of young adulthood, her tracks hit with visceral emotional honesty.

Fresh off selling out headline shows in both Melbourne and Sydney and backed by the viral success of her breakout single "Gold" (surpassing 2.7 million streams) she delivers a distinctive edge both sonically and lyrically.
__________
Lily B makes music built on loud feelings and even louder live shows. An indie pop songwriting prowess, wrapped in big 90s rock guitars, her anthems are unmissable.

Since her 2024 debut, she's earned three features on ABC's Rage, editorial playlisting on Spotify, national radio airplay, two Australian Cinematography Award wins, and sold out shows on her national tour of debut EP "Grown Up?"

2026 has been her punchiest year yet. "Show Me How" marked her return to Rage and triple j Unearthed. "Lina" her most colourful, poppiest release, returned her to Fresh Finds AU & NZ and brought a new Rolling Stone Magazine collaboration.

From opening Rolling Sets Festival 2025, to Vivid Fire Kitchen in June 2026 and a main support slot for The Temper Trap, her punchy, emotionally-charged sets win over rooms fast.

Sound NSW has backed Lily for a national tour this October, leading into her EP release this December.

Lily B is sharpening her edges, turning up the amps, and stepping onto bigger stages with something to prove.
__________
Avery Pickup is a 21 year old independent alternative pop artist based in Eora (Sydney).

Avery's debut studio album ‘killer’ (2025) achieved nearly a million Spotify streams - following the success of lead single ‘letter’ - and created a loyal fanbase, largely due to her work’s emotional resonance.

Avery's music is often compared to artists like Phoebe Bridgers, Lizzy McAlpine and Mitski. Avery just released her sophomore studio album ‘the grave’ and is excited to share her music with all of you this Sunday.

11/07/2026

Our all ages venue today for King Street Crawl, the beautiful heritage iconic St George's Hall is also the High School Hall for Newtown High School of the Performing Arts. it's the school hall where performers like Katie Laga'aia (Moana) and Milly Alcock (Supergirl) first trod the boards as young teens, where bands like the Lazyeyes (our headliners at last year's Crawl) first shook those boards playing to their classmates, when Bang Chan of kpop band Stray Kids sung in his school choir, where Hottest 100 winner, May-a, first dreamt of stardom.

Each year we've brought young high school stars of the future and emerging stars of today to the fore at our all ages stage at King Street Crawl - former students of the school returning to their old school hall - like the Lazy Eyes - as well as teen stars in the making.

IIt will be same today with Newtown High band VIRL performing, and other Sydney high school bands and artists Embrosia, BRONTE, The Underground Brass Band.

Grab your ticket in our bio and come see the stars of tomorrow today!
