The Sea Benz

THE BIG GIG — LIVE & LOUD EVERY FRIDAY

Sponsored by Coopers Brewing

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 7 November

🎶 Live on stage: THE SEA BENZ

💥 Free Entry

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

Groove-heavy and gloriously unpredictable, Sea Benz are the kind of band that grab your attention from the first riff and don’t let go. Known for their slick blend of funk, soul, jazz and rock, this genre-mashing five-piece bring serious energy and tight-as-hell musicianship to every stage they hit.

With tasty guitar licks, deep basslines, and vocals that hit in all the right spots, a Sea Benz set is part jam session, part dance floor ignition — all wrapped in a salty, coastal swagger. Whether you’re a first-timer or a long-time fan, you’re in for a ride.

Live and loud at the Australian Hotel Ballina. Get amongst it.
