‘Goodstock’, are not just a band, they’re an institution. It is apparent that the Music Industry is ever changing and that’s where Goodstock make their mark. Since its inception back in 2015 (Perth), where the band had made its name wowing audiences all over Australia’s great Western state, it has now returned to frontman Pete Ashton’s hometown Melbourne where it has evolved into its latest formation. With the introduction of local muso’s Mark Russell and James Rance, Goodstock continues make an impression on the cover scene with its compatibility, versatility and keeness Goodstock cover a diverse array of artists and genres from way back then, right up until today. From old school sets including The Beatles, Johnny Cash and CCR to 70’s/80’s sounds like Billy Joel, Rob Palmer and INXS right up to newer sounds such as Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran and Portugal. The Man, the range of songs covered is extensive.

For any occasion, first impressions are essential and Goodstock make no exception. Their professionalism, reliability, enthusiasm and hard working nature are soon apparent to any client involved in booking the act and this is proven by their increasingly busy performance calendar. Furthermore their performances are full of energy and are blended with great crowd involvement creating the perfect setting for a successful fun-filled event. In addition to all this, Goodstocks capacity to strip down from a fully fledged 3 piece rock/party outfit to a smaller acoustic based three piece, including a substantially minimised drum-kit, makes them available to play a variety of venues and functions where a band isn’t the desired focus. Whether nightclub or pub, 21st or 60th, Goodstock can ensure an interactive, vibrant and fun atmosphere to suit all your music entertainment needs.

  • I thought I’d just follow up regarding Goodstock's performance at our Netball wind up in Kalbarri. They were absolutely fabulous!! Such a wide variety of music which had has all dancing the night away, just what we wanted. Everyone has been raving about them and asking me to rebook them for next years celebration! Great band with great blokes, would highly recommend to anyone wanting live music! Thanks for sending them up!

  • I want to thank Goodstock for an excellent show on Saturday night at my birthday celebration. My guests loved them! With most of us growing up in the 70’s and 80’s and regularly seeing live performances in pubs, it was potentially a discerning crowd. They are still talking about it, so obviously the band kicked some goals, and the song selection was very good too.

  • Goodstock were incredible. Great energy and great guys. I would strongly, STRONGLY, recommend them to anyone needing a live cover band. I was impressed with the flexibility of their set list and just feeling out the audience. They made the night really memorable.

  • Goodstock were great, definitely one of the best we’ve had for the crowd here. I had comments on the night how good the music/performance was and even though we had a smaller crowd this year they still got them up dancing! I would like to thank the band + Grandstand Agency for accommodating the change that our Site manager requested, I know that was not an easy thing to do but I’m so grateful that you made it possible. Have a very Merry Christmas and a great New Year!
