Hit The Switch is a hobby booking agency run by a brother and sister team who combine their love of music and the fact that they live in different states (Melbourne & Sydney) to organize shows along the east coast of Australia. So now they get to see each other more often. Plus see and/or tour with their favorite Aussie bands in the process.
Over the years they have Organized, DJ'd and Played shows in Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. Although it wasn't until 2006 when they decided they should put a name to the shows they put on (mainly so they could advertise over MySpace etc).
"So far it's been a non stop adventure and we have met some amazing musicians and artist along the way. I can't wait to see what 2009 brings Hit The Switch!"
If you think you would be interested in playing or DJ-ing at one of the shows Hit The Switch puts on OR would like more information drop an email to hittheswitch@live.com

Reviews from past shows.....
Hello!!! It's been awhile - sorry there hasn't been in any Australian shows for many months but we've been busy in Europe with a bunch of touring and we're now recording our new album in Berlin (scheduled for release in March). But to make up for it, here's a big (and silly) Merry Christmas from us (and from some hippos too) :
Some bold new artistic direction? Nah, Just us being silly!!! We did this track for our label's "Black Snow - the completely different Xmas compilation". (and of course, visit our youtube channel for a high quality version)
Wishing you a very silly Silly Season and we'll see you back in Australia sometime in 2010!
