Your Friday nights = sorted. We're bringing the noise with epic live music every week at Australian Hotel Ballina. From homegrown legends to wildcards from beyond, The Big Gig is all about good tunes, great mates, and kicking off the weekend right.

This Week's Lineup

🗓️ Friday 30 January

🎶 Live on stage: Henry West Band

💥 Free Entry

Get in early — tunes start from 8PM and the good vibes roll all night long.

A melange of melodic interludes, deep grooves and jazzy spontaneity best describe Henry West’s musical energy. Demonstrating a phenomenal range across genres, pulling inspiration from Jazz, RnB, Soul and Hip Hop, Henry transitions smoothly from live, rhythmic performances to his music studio, where he composes and produces his original tracks. Henry’s irrefutable talent carries his listeners from a hypnotic, dreamy state to a sudden urge to paint the dance floor with his energetic experimentation. A voice that transitions from effortlessly atmospheric to deep and powerful with impressive range. Capturing and charming his audience, West shares his stories through his music.
