Celebrations All Round With CHRISTIAN TRYHORN From MO'S DESERT CLUBHOUSE

HEAVY Music Interviews

In just five years, Mo's Desert Clubhouse in Burleigh Heads has established itself as a leader player in the Australian music industry, providing a venue that caters to all genres of music played by bands of all levels. But it has become more than that for so many people, providing a comfortable and accessible live music outlet that has as much of a famly feel as it does a live music house.
Mo's recently took out their third Live Music Venue Of The Year award at the Gold Coast Music Awards, in doing so earning themselves a place in immortality when inducted into the Hall Of Fame.
To celebrate the past, present, and future, Mo's Desert Clubhouse will be hosting a special fifth birthday party at the venue on Sunday, October 6 with 8 bands playing plus games, prizes, food and a hot tub!
HEAVY sat down with the man behind Mo's, Christian Tryhorn, to discuss the birthday party and more.
We engaged in a detailed discussion about the planning of Mo's Desert Clubhouse's fifth birthday celebration, focusing on the event's band line-up, the inclusion of a hot tub, and the desired atmosphere to appeal to regular attendees. Christian highlighted the importance of securing tickets early due to expected high demand, while also celebrating their recent accolades, including the Gold Coast Live Music Venue of the Year Award and induction into the Hall of Fame, which underscore Mo's commitment to musicians and creating a safe environment. The conversation delved into the venue's origins, tracing its evolution from a personal space inspired by experiences at Burning Man to a significant live music venue in Australia, and reflected on the professionalism developed over the years.
Christian also addressed the challenges faced by the music industry in the post-COVID era, including impacts on ticket sales and changing alcohol consumption trends among younger audiences, while promoting the Beats Cartel project aimed at supporting touring bands and more.
