Australian indie-pop band Sheppard made the shock decision to not cancel their recent concert in Poland, despite selling just 59 tickets to the show.

The Brisbane-based band are currently performing across Europe and had a scheduled performance in Warsaw on April 12 that sold below expectations.

However, the band decided the show must go on and played their hearts out to a small yet passionate crowd.

They later shared a clip to social media revealing why they made the decision to continue with the performance.

’59 people showed up to our show in Poland. We knew we had only sold minimal tickets but also knew the people that would show up would be our biggest fans,’ they began.

‘We knew that no matter what we had to show up for them. So we got on stage and gave it 100 per cent.’

‘Blows my mind that this is news. The show was effing epic despite the smaller audience,’ added lead singer Amy Sheppard.

‘Plus we just played a show across the other side of the world and people showed up.’ 

They added it was one of their best performances to date and were happy they made the decision to go through with it.

‘We were right. People danced, laughed and even cried listening to our music. It was a reminder you always show up no matter what. Give it all you’ve got,’ they wrote. 

Many of their celebrity followers took to the comment section to congratulate them on a job well done.

‘You should be so proud! I am beyond proud of you my friends,’ gushed Delta Goodrem.

‘I have no doubt that every single person you played too in that room had the best night! Keep it going.’ 

Meanwhile, Pete Murray shared a fire and love heart emoji.
