The Viable
The Viable, formed in 2016 as a garage band, quickly found their own style creating original music. Their live debut, in 2017, was at the Ipswich Battle of the Bands where they won a live music recording session and their song Purple Dress was used in a promotional video.  Early 2018 they released their first album ‘Seed’, with videos ‘Stoned’ and ‘Safety Man‘, which were well received in Australia and have gained international airplay. The Viable are raw, energetic and stand apart, enthralling their audience with rock music written with shear love, passion and a bit of grunge!

Chosen, by popular demand, to support Butterfingers at the Racehorse Hotel in April, and with new music on the way, keep an eye out for The Viable in 2019!
