The best kind of community stands shoulder to shoulder: introducing Punk Bananas. It’s the newest corner of YELO dedicated to local gig culture, music lore, and sunshine rebellion.
Gig Culture, Music Lore & Sunshine Rebellion
Punk Bananas turns strangers into mates and is about making every night out more fun, more loud, and more inclusive. It’s a little bit surf-soaked, a whole lot chaotic, and built for the people who follow the live music trail like they depend on it.
This isn’t a polished scene. It’s loud, imperfect, DIY, and a hyper-local celebration of the Sunshine Coast’s underground musical heart. PB brings all of that energy together and gives it a home.
It’s where stories, sounds, and subcultures collide. Every hat, poster, playlist and gig guide becomes a part of the fabric, stitched together by the bands, the surf rats, the punters, and the gig gremlins who shape it.
The original Punk Banana character was created by Sunshine Coast artist Adam Niven (builtfromboxes), whose playful low-brow style brought the skateboarding banana gig monster to life.
Join the Punk Bananas Community
Keep an eye out for the new Punk Bananas Facebook group (new!) – a place to connect, plan nights out, and grow the music mates vibe. We kick start the community with three new PB T-Shirt designs, an iced latte cup (AH-MAZING!), tote bag, and sticker, which you can find here.
Whether you’re here for the music, the people, or the next PB merch drop, welcome to the club.
Stay YELO!
