Despite Brisbane’s recent lockdown local music punters can celebrate as Torch Fest Brisbane has been given the green light to go ahead this weekend. It’s so important in times like these that events like this can still go ahead – for the artists, the venues and for the general public – so to add the cherry on the top, Torch Fest have just announced that Tori Forsyth will be joining the already massive line-up.
Presented by the award-winning mental health music charity Listen Up Music, Torch Fest is their inaugural, first of its kind, mental health music festival shining a light on inspirational artists and their stories.
Torch Fest Brisbane will be a full-day festival this Saturday, 10th of April at the West Room featuring 13 radiant Queensland artists and bands.
Lighting things up, the line-up for this special day festival include Tia Gostelow, Tori Forsyth, DOOLIE, ELEEA, Jordan Merrick, Leonie Kingdom, Genes, Ella Fence and more.
With mental health having such a huge impact on the music industry, especially in recent COVID times, the festival is a chance to eradicate the stigma associated with talking about mental health, while retaining the essence of fun and celebration. Ali Taylor the co-founder of Listen Up Music states: “Torch Fest has been an idea that I have had for some time now, and it feels right to be launching it at a time when connection and community are so very important. COVID-19 has had an enormous impact on communities all across the country, and the idea of music being something to get you through, coupled with the huge importance to artists of being able to perform live, it’s a no brainer.”
All performers on the day will perform a Torch Song as part of their full set. The festival will distribute battery-powered torches to each attendee to flick on when each of the Torch Songs are played throughout the day, creating a stunning atmosphere.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
