Hobart has also long been home to a thriving
classical, jazz, folk, punk, hip-hop,
electro, metal and rock music scene.
Nationally recognised musicians such as
singer/songwriters Michael Noga (of The
Drones), two thirds of indie rock band Love
Of Diagrams, Tim Evans (of bands Sea Scouts,
Mouth and Bird Blobs), Monique Brumby, blues
guitarist Phil Manning (of blues-rock band
Chain), power-pop group The Innocents and
metal band Psycroptic are all successful
expatriates. In addition, founding member of
Violent Femmes, Brian Ritchie, now calls
Hobart home, and has formed a local band,
The Green Mist.
Several festivals such as the Hobart Fringe
Festival, Hobart Summer Festival, Southern
Roots Festival, Ten Days On The Island and
the Falls Festival in Marion Bay all
capitalise on the Hobart's artistic
communities.
