THE KOFFIN ROCKERS – We are REALLY excited about this one, making their return to The Panda Room and their debut at Ellis Beach is The Koffin Rockers, all the way from Townsville. 

Laidback larrikins Michael Hegarty (guitars/vox), Shaun Butcher (upright bass/vox) and Michael forte (drums/vox) personify the musical genre they play: a mix of balls to the wall rock n roll, in your face punk, toe-tapping pop and just enough hillbilly to make you realise you’re not in Kansas anymore. This is completely new territory, so let The Koffin Rockers be your guide.

Check your inhibitions at the door, because TKR will get you on the dance floor with their no frills, all thrills stage shows that have been winning fans across the country. The band formed back in 2011, and since then have wowed crowds up and down the east coast of Australia. From Hotter Than Hell (TSV, GLD), Townsville’s Rock n Rods Nostalgia Festival, Stones Corner Festival, Fist Fest Punk Festival, the Airlie Beach Music Festival, Autumnfest Maitland, Towers and Stanthorpe Rocks, Cooly Rocks and Brisbane’s Greazefest Kustom Kulture Festival.
