You, Me And the Golden Light

The intoxicatingly cosmic vibes of Splendour In The Grass illuminated Byron Bay last weekend. Stab rolled in for the good times and took Taj Burrow, Craig Anderson and Soli Bailey along for the ride. We stayed in the kinda breezy, magnificent Byron Bay house that you dream about in the depths of winter. It was directly opposite the Top Shop and offered a view that tourists would gift freshly-exchanged money for. Location considered, we couldn’t help but host an intimate pre-game soiree before swanning into the festival site. There was plenty of surfing too, since Tallows was exactly four stop-n-go’s from the balcony, and especially because, well, Taj and Craig and Soli! Which brings us to You, Me and the Golden Light, a Stab x Carlton Dry joint about how to enjoy Splendour In The Grass. It’s a glance at the sunshine in our rearview mirror, three minutes of motion footage to sharpen the blur.
