In partnership with Smirnoff Seltzer Cocktails, two kick-arse frontwomen show us what’s inside their summer festival bags. 

After a few years of idle quiet, Australia’s live music calendar is now bulging with high-profile summer festivals. The coming festival season is set to last for several months and take place across metro and regional parts of the country. So, whether it be nailing down schedules, roping in friends or planning road trips and flight itineraries, there’s a lot to prepare for.

It’s for this reason that Life Without Andy has partnered with Smirnoff for the launch of their new Smirnoff Seltzer Cocktails. You’ll be able to enjoy the new Smirnoff Seltzer Cocktails as you get prepared for the wide range of festivals on offer this summer. The Spicy Margarita and Watermelon Margarita Seltzer Cocktails are low in sugar, contain 107 calories per serve and come in at 7% ABV, making them an appealing option for pre-festival moments.

To help you cut through the clutter and decide what to stick in your tote, rucksack or bum bag, we called on the expertise of Zoe Catterall, lead vocalist and guitarist for The Buoys, and Lily Richardson, one half of indie-rock duo Clews.

Over a can of Smirnoff Spicy Margarita and Watermelon Margarita Seltzer Cocktails, Zoe and Lily compare their festival inventory and reminisce about festival mishap memories, days spent lathered in sunscreen moshing in the summer sun.
