We finally got to sit down and have a chat with the man with the event extraordinaire & full time ear-to-ear grinner Louis Murphy-Harris!
Louis has an incredibly unique story. From stumbling upon event management starting from his days at uni, to now looking ahead at the third instalment of his very own backyard festival Tora Bombora at the end of Jan 2021!
Louis & Corb have quite a bit of overlapping history with their involvements at uni. Fun fact for ya: Louis was the first person to EVER give us a shot playing a live gig. Something we will be eternally grateful for..
Check out the full episode to hear the behind the scenes of these stories!

Very excited to hear about what Dom has on the horizon..

Corb & Gabe sit down together on a nice sunny arvo and reflect back on the early days of Sounds Of The Local, specifically diving into their collaboration over the SOL logo and first SOL T-Shirt!
Taking a 'just do it' & 'figure it out later' attitude the pair ran into many laughable obstacles. From bumping into strangers wearing the SOL shirt to manu'ing tables to promote the release of the shirts. This sure wasn't your average design & shirt production process...
