"Back by popular demand - Brisbane's own Shade Hadie (Buddy Moyes, Oskar Thaw, Michael Georgas, Riley Sharp) return to rock the silver screen playing the live music score to a new 4K restoration of the landmark Australian thriller film 'Wake In Fright' (1975). After last years 'Stone' performance had everyone talking, this year's screening was going to be just as unforgettable. Shade Hadie delivered a gritty, visceral soundtrack to match the film's wild intensity."

"The legends at Shade Hadie are returning to Vision Splendid. Catch them doing what they do best - performing LIVE alongside the stunning 4K restoration of the iconic 1970s film Wake In Fright. A cult classic on the big screen. An electric blues band on stage. It's gritty, it's immersive, it'll be one of the most unforgettable sessions of the festival."

"As if Shade Hadie couldn’t get any cooler… then they go and play live alongside 'Wake in Fright' and absolutely blow the roof off. The crowd was hooked, we were obsessed — easily one of the standout moments of the whole festival. THAT. WAS. SO. COOL!"
