Vivid is a cultural smorgasbord of bright light shows, sweet sweet music and fantastical ideas. It runs all over Sydney from the 23rd of May until June 9th, and you would be foolish to miss it. There are hundreds of events on throughout Vivid and picking the ones to go to can be pretty darn hard. […]
Melbourne dance duo Client Liaison have been making waves recently. Really funky, well-groomed waves. Their delicious brand of ‘90s dance music enticed me to Alhambra Lounge on Thursday night to catch the Brisbane leg of their nationwide tour, and I was not disappointed. Supporting the boys was fellow Melbournian Chela, who describes herself as an […]
I was mesmerised. The soothing guitars and polished synth had my mind transfixed onto the psychedelic wonder of Glass Animals. They are the latest UK trip-hop quartet, and taking the world by storm with their peanut butter vibes. There was only one support act, Bree Tranter, and there was a long period of time between […]
St. Lucia, the swirling sensational electro from South African born Jean-Philip Grobler, will be hitting Australian shores next week. When The Night was released last year to rave reviews, with upbeat songs swelling with sax solos and stunning vocals. It was also released by Neon Gold, the ridiculously cool record label that we are heavily frothing. They’ll […]
This is the band you’ve been craving. They’ve got all the psychedelic of Tame Impala smushed into the rock of Radiohead with a dash of smooth soulful R&B. Glass Animals are heading back from SXSW to our very lucky Australian shores and you should see them now while they’re selling for the price of only […]

The summery garden complete with waterfalls will host a range of bands, including Ball Park Music, Cosmo’s Midnight, The Holidays, Jinja Safari, Snakadaktal, […]
Mikhael is a cheeky character. His bounding enthusiasm, stunningly varied voice (and set) and quality humorous banter made sure the night was not ‘Just another gig’ that will blur into the hundreds of other gigs I’ll attend in 2014. This was something special. The quality of the music and sound was top notch, with fantastic […]
Boiler Room TV, known worldwide for their exclusive sensational gigs and web-tv broadcasting of said gigs, brought their party synthesizing skills to Club 77, Sydney, on Tuesday night. The line outside was filled with curious punters, who had won tickets through sponsors Budweiser or Contiki, all seeming eager to be allowed entry and check out Black […]
With a cheeky grin and his smooth white guitar, Jeremy Sega Dreamboat Neale launched his new EP “In Stranger Times” on Vinyl amidst a packed out crowd at Southside Tearoom. His quirky personality and charming mannerisms made the show, with bursts of chatter sliding easily between his songs, highlights including the clever “Bodyboarding” (curse those […]
