Today it was announced that The Grates will be headlining the Purple Sneakers NYE House Party. The Grates back from the States! YAY… the stalking continues!

Joining The Grates at the House Party will be three international acts – The Boxer Rebellion (UK), Ponytail (US) and Baddies (UK). The other Australian acts announced today were Philadelphia Grand Jury, Red Riders, DZ, Chaingang, The Trivs, Young Heretics, and Deep Sea Arcade.

Overall a pretty impressive line up and no doubt a very nice way to bring in the new year. There will also be loads of DJs, both local and international, added to the line up… sometime in the future.

The Purples Sneakers NYE House Party is happening on Dec 31st (duh) at Manning Bar, Sydney. Tickets go on sale 9th October with limited early bird tickets only $49 (plus BF).
