Hey everyone, my name is Lauren. I manage Forest Hall, an indie/garage/rock band based in Sydney.

We’ve just received some crazy news - the band has been invited to showcase at the Kansai Music Conference in Japan this year! This is a massive opportunity for Forest Hall to perform internationally and break into the Japanese music market.

We are self-funding as much of this journey as possible, but getting a full band and their backline equipment safely to Osaka is a massive expense. Between international flights, excess baggage for instruments, and secure transport once we land, the costs are stacking up quickly.

We are humbly asking for support from Aussie music fans to help get us over the line. Your donations will go directly toward the essential costs of the tour:

-Flights & Transport: Getting the band and gear to Osaka.

-Logistics: Securely moving heavy equipment between venues.

-Accommodation: A safe place for the guys to stay while they work.

We are so grateful for the incredible support we've received from the local scene. Let’s make this Japan tour happen!
