Sounds Fresh 5 - Migret and Brendan O’Reilly

MIGRET 6pm

Migret is an indie-electronica band from Sydney, Australia, formed in 2019 by Argentinian-born couple Betsy and Fran. Their debut studio album, Un montón de casas, released independently in 2019, is now sold out. After touring Argentina and releasing a series of singles, the band is now building a home on wheels to explore Australia.
