About Me


PLEASE NOTE: the proper way to write playfield is WITHOUT a capital; this is to represent the logo as accurately as possible.
playfield is an original instrumental metal band from Sydney’s Northern Beaches that officially began in mid 2004. They have been billed as “teenage virtuosos”.
playfield write instrumental metal, and are trying to re-introduce a lost genre of music where the listeners are able to focus more on the instruments - guitar, bass and drums rather than them being a platform for the vocals.
playfield are known for their energetic live shows. You can be guaranteed each playfield performance is completely unique from the next, as they like to keep their audience enthralled by spontaneous improvisations, shred solos, audience participation and their virtuosic playing despite their ages.
In August playfield released a 5 track EP and is currently on sale! The playfield EP costs $10 at all playfield gigs and $15 outside of gigs. The EP runs for a total time of 27:10 and contains a four-page booklet inside with photos and information about playfield.
