SUMMARY:Getdown Services - Australia & New Zealand 2026 at The Brightside B
 risbane
LOCATION:27 Warner Street\, Fortitude Valley\, Brisbane\, QLD\, 4006
DESCRIPTION:Meet Getdown Services – your new favourite band and one of the 
 UK’s hottest word-of-mouth acts! The brilliantly offbeat cult British duo 
 has been turning heads across Britain and Europe with their balls-to-the-w
 alls live shows\, tongue-in-cheek wit\, razor-sharp lyrics and infectious 
 disco-fuelled grooves\, teetering between chaos and genius. And now\, afte
 r selling out tours across the UK and Europe\, they’re bringing their riot
 ous show down under for the first time in May/June 2026 – with shows in Br
 isbane\, Sydney\, Melbourne\, Auckland and Wellington\, presented by I OH 
 YOU and MG Live.\nTickets go on sale Friday 14 November at 10.00am local t
 ime\, with MG Live presale commencing Thursday 13 November at 10.00am loca
 l time. Sign up for early access to the MG Live presale here.\n“I reckon w
 e get people asking us to come to Australia probably every day\, and every
 one in England is moving there\, so will be good to see what all the fuss 
 is about.\n“Always been one of those places where you’re like\, ‘Fair enou
 gh\, but I can’t be arsed with that. It looks mad – there’s snakes and als
 o it takes 40 hours to get there.’ Will be good fun\, though! Went to New 
 Zealand to see a mate of ours get married a few years ago and thought it w
 as a lovely country and I really liked those pies they have. It felt quite
  similar to the UK in a lot of ways\, so playing gigs there should be fun!
 ”\nGetdown Services\nFor those in the know\, Bristol-based duo Josh Law an
 d Ben Sadler – aka Getdown Services – are THE must-see new act of the year
 . And if you don’t know yet\, you will soon … and you’ll wish you got in e
 arly! Named as “one to watch” at this year’s Glastonbury Festival and dubb
 ed (by the band themselves) “Britain’s Best Band”\, their live shows are e
 qual parts smart\, sweaty and gloriously unhinged. Their sound is a wild b
 lend of scrappy indie disco\, twisted funk and post-punk energy\, turning 
 the absurdity of modern Britain into dancefloor gold.\nThe pair met at sch
 ool in Minehead\, Somerset and now make music together at home in Bristol 
 – churning out what Rolling Stone called “power disco with unrepentant sil
 liness” with a healthy dose of satire and swagger. Their highly lauded deb
 ut album Crisps (Breakfast Records\, 2023) showcased their eclectic dancea
 ble grooves and biting social commentary\, and a mix of sharp\, funny soci
 al observations wrapped in irresistible\, funk-fuelled rhythms. Follow-up 
 EPs Your Medal’s In The Post\, Crumbs and latest\, Primordial Slot Machine
 \, cemented their cult status\, alongside an arsenal of red-hot singles – 
 including James Bay’s Hat\, Dog Dribble\, I Got Views and Eat Quiche\, Sle
 ep\, Repeat.\n“Getdown Services are unrepentantly silly and constantly del
 iver one of the most joyously deranged live shows – just one of the best l
 ive bands out there!”\nRolling Stone\n“Their live show is as daft and as e
 xhilarating as they come. Five stars.”\nBuzz Magazine\n“Genuine contenders
  to being the most exciting and interesting band in the UK right now.”\nCL
 ASH\nGetdown Services look set to gobble up the world\, one crumb at a tim
 e. Whether you’re into danceable chaos\, satirical genius or just want to 
 be ahead of the curve\, Getdown Services are the band you didn’t know you 
 needed – until now! Britain’s favourite new band are about to become yours
