The Veronicas at Bondi Beach — it doesn’t get more iconic, or more Aussie, than that. And now, you could be there to catch the beloved pop duo live, thanks to Rolling Stone AU/NZ and THE ICONIC teaming up for SUMMER SOUNDS — a one-day-only party set to help Aussies usher in the warmer weather in style.
On Saturday, November 1st, North Bondi Surf Lifesaving Club will be transformed into a celebration of music, fashion, and culture, with The Veronicas headlining the party. Think sun-soaked beats, statement fits, and coastal cocktails, all set against one of the most famous beaches in the world.
It’s a great time to be seeing The Veronicas live: Jess and Lisa Origliasso made their Hottest 100 debut earlier this year when “Untouched” — aka Australia’s national anthem — reached No. 3 in triple j’s Hottest 100 of Australia Songs countdown, being beaten by only Hilltop Hoods (The Nosebleed Section”) and INXS (“Never Tear Us Apart”).
Expect to hear “Untouched” and more of their top hits when The Veronicas play SUMMER SOUNDS, including material from latest album Gothic Summer (2024), a top 10 hit in Australia.
“The whole theme of Gothic Summer is that it’s basically exploring social commentary on what we think is reality versus how we create our reality,” Jessie told us in an exclusive interview last year. “It’s a very metaphorical album.”
If you fancy seeing The Veronicas at SUMMER SOUNDS, THE ICONIC is giving you the chance to score passes.
