Balmain's all original female live music showcase 'PopTarts', continues its monthly showcase. Hosted this month by local indie pop artist Simon Morel, PopTarts continues to present a variety of up-and-coming and established local artists. PopTarts also showcase great female talent on the second Tuesday of every month in conjunction with Platform 31 and FBi Radio at 'The Steyne Hotel' in Manly.
The fabulous female fronted acts featuring this month at Balmain are Country Songstress Tori Darke, Indie Pop songwriter Genevieve Little, Bluegrass/Country outfit The Orphans, sassy Jazz influenced pop singer Lindsay Drummond and PopTarts newbie Anita.
PopTarts has become a collective of hundreds of independent original female pop music artists - which began as a series of live showcase events in July 2001 at The Empire Hotel in Annandale. Since then it has included more than 1,500 local and touring artists at almost 300 regular showcase nights at their 'home' in Annandale before it underwent major renovations back in 2007.
