# Event Details - **Event Name**: ‘Social Sanctuary’ with Relays, Máquina Peligrosa + Hot Milk Machine - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 04 May, 2026 at 09:00 am (+10:00) - **Event Description**: FREE ENTRY | $20 CHICKEN & EGGPLANT PARMAS | $10 PINTS OF MOUNTAIN GOAT Kick those Monday blues to the curb at Social Sanctuary – your weekly night of free live music at NSC. We've lined up a stellar roster of your fave local artists and some exciting new talents breezing through town! This week Relays, Máquina Peligrosa and Hot Milk Machine are stopping by for a show. Formed in late 2023, Relays are an autistic punk band making noise in all the right ways. In under two years, they’ve dropped a run of raw, non-PC singles that have clocked 30,000+ Spotify streams and earned a reputation as one of the most unpredictable live acts in the Australian underground. Fronted by autistic, ADHD and dyslexic producer/guitarist Shann Lions, with Mik Weird on drums and Phil Inn on bass, Relays balance chaos with precision — blistering punk urgency wrapped in DIY spirit. Their self-titled debut album, recorded live to two-inch tape at Head Gap with Finn Keane (Wilco, Courtney Barnett), landed in October 2024 on cassette and vinyl. The release drew international radio play, tastemaker playlists, glowing press, and a slot at Chopped Festival alongside Cosmic Psychos and Delivery. Since then, Relays have ripped through a 23-date national tour, supported the legendary You Am I (July 2025), and wrapped their sophomore LP — funded by Creative Victoria’s New Music Works — set for release in June-2026. With the local scene buzzing, Relays are keeping it loud with a feral cover of The Vines “Get Free” (out October 30, 2025), plus shows with The Meanies and The Smith Street Band. Raw, relentless, and impossible to ignore — Relays are here to rip the paint off Australian punk. Máquina Peligrosa sling a high-impact blend of psychedelic mutant garage with surf and punk overtones. Their name is Spanish for “Dangerous Machine,” and true to their name, they bring sweat-drenched energy, razor-sharp swagger and butt-shaking tunes. Having released several singles, sold-out 7" vinyl release shows, and received a bunch of airplay in 2025, Máquina is fresh out of the studio with new music, so come and witness it first hand! This is a band built for the live stage. Formed out of a Catholic all girls high school in 2022, Hot Milk Machine is a foaming four piece punk-rock and modern-grunge group taking Naarm by storm. From selling out The Whole Lotta Love Bar, to headlining The Tote, and even winning the 2024 Cosmic Jive: Battle of the Bands; Paige, Alannah, Rosie, and Oz are frothing up a storm. Their debut single Please (Let Me Get What I Want) is a nostalgic sound with all the grit and teenage angst you could ever need. Inspired by bands like Silverchair, Hole, Amyl and The Sniffers, Pixies, and even Courtney Barnett, their sound is unique and everpresently Melbournian, sounding like fresh mud from a pair of Doc Martens on the steps of Flinders St Station. "Hot Milk Machine has been making waves across the local scene... they are not slowing down anytime soon." - ." - Molly Inglis: Local Voices, Global Dreams However, the release of Please is only the beginning for these young rockers, with a full album in the works featuring fan favourites like B.A.A.C, Bad Influence, Spiders, and Drug Money. Social Sanctuary is proud to be sponsored by Mountain Goat. Our show is being held on the lands of the Wurundjeri People and we wish to acknowledge them as the Traditional Owners of this land we are gathered on. We also pay our respects to their Elders, past and present, and Aboriginal Elders of other communities that may join us for our show.
