Lapping Up The Sunshine With TOM READ From Bodyjar

Lapping Up The Sunshine With TOM READ From Bodyjar

Interview by Erin Eddy
If ever there was a time to be in Queensland, it’s right now. In parts of the country where the
weather has taken a chilly turn, the Sunshine Coast is a welcome reprieve. But the favourable
weather isn’t the only drawcard this week.
On Saturday June 3, the Sandstone Point Hotel is hosting Spring Loaded Festival.
A delicious throw back for those of us who were big into the Triple J scene of the late 90’s and early 2000’s, Spring Loaded is serving up one mighty cocktail of Aussie music.
HEAVY spoke with Tom Read of Bodyjar, one sliver of the Spring Loaded pie. He expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming event proclaiming, “Get me up to Queensland fast!”
The festival line up is exciting for the Bodyjar congregation due to being among so many friends. A sentiment that is likely shared across all the bands attending, which is only going to make for huge vibes on the day.
“I have no excuse but to go hard,” said Tom, who will be taking the opportunity to stick around in Queensland for a holiday with his family after the festival, “I can’t not get in the pit for Shihad.”
Bodyjar and Shihad are joined by Magic Dirt, Spiderbait, Frenzal Rhomb, Eskimo Joe, Ratcat and Screamfeeder. An epic assemblage of bands, right?
Tickets are still available and can be purchased via Ticketmaster.
Tune in to the really fun chat we had with Tom, talking about Spring Loaded, nostalgia, what Bodyjar are up to next and Tom’s date with hypothermia post-interview!
