We've been keeping this a secret for over a year.
We're proud to present Wednesday, the dynamic North Carolina-based band led by Karly Hartzman, captured live at Sydney’s Factory Theatre on February 29, 2024, and committed only to highly limited edition vinyl. Not available on streaming...
Wednesday emerged from the vibrant North Carolina indie rock scene, quickly making waves with their genre-blending sound that combines elements of alt-rock, indie, and shoegaze.
Led by the enigmatic Karly Hartzman, the band's music has resonated with audiences thanks to their emotionally charged lyrics, dreamy yet driving instrumentals, and a powerful live presence that’s garnered critical acclaim.
Their breakthrough album, Rat Saw God (sold out vinyl) released in 2023, solidified their place in the modern indie rock scene. Featuring standout tracks like Got Shocked and Bull Believer, the band’s blend of introspective storytelling and gritty guitars creates a raw, captivating experience that speaks to fans of both vintage alt-rock and contemporary indie sounds. Wednesday’s performances are known for their raw energy, vulnerability, and atmospheric presence that captivates audiences from the first note to the last.
Rat Saw God was Pitchfork's #4 Album of 2023, and Karly and the band embarked on a victory lap around the world. Which led us to The Factory Theatre in Sydney on February 29th 2024.
Recorded live in front of a Sydney crowd, this 11-track record features a mix of their acclaimed tracks including Got Shocked, Turkey Vultures, and Hot Rotten Grass Smell. The show was a perfect blend of the band's signature style, featuring moments of brilliance from each member, with Hartzman’s captivating presence leading the charge.
