The Underground Stage
“Greenwave Beth is a Flowertruck-powered project, and couldn’t be any wider-eyed, PiL vs David Byrne, or vaguely crazed if its life depended on it. That loopy-stared wail of a vocal soars above fruity electronica, it’s witty and smart and it’s dressed in a vest. Grand and grubby all at the same time.” Facebook | Instagram
“Everyone in Pyjama Sundayz is dressed like 1980s Wall Streeters in ill-fitting suits (including a dude taking a business call at the back of the stage), and I swear to God, I am watching a meme band. I understand not one thing. This is excellent fun.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter [flickr_set id=”72157687903955990″]
“Waax barrel around on record and on stage as if their lives depend on it, by turns furious and uplifting, but always thrilling. Hints of icy cold Yeah Yeah Yeahs moments weave in and out of some roaring songwriting, and it’s hard to think of anything at all that’s wrong with that picture.” CONNECT Facebook […]
“Anyone who hears Julia Jacklin sing and isn’t moved has something terminally wrong with them at a molecular level. Playing mostly new songs tonight, there’s no sense of unfamiliarity – this is as good as it gets. Hell, in a venue like this, it’s better. Stunning.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157663652912797″]
“Elizabeth Fader might be coming in hot from guitar duties in Phantastic Ferniture, but this ain’t no side-project, this is fully-formed and ready for prime time. Most of what you’ll read will focus on her guitar skills, but the real eyeball-burner here is the *prodigious* songwriting. This is a set made up of barnstormers and […]
“Crocodylus have got more high-voltage energy than a puppy crossed with a car battery, and have a grab-bag of rattlingly mad garage tunes that can shatter bones from distance. Every show is full throttle, grinningly loopy, and a blast from start to end.” CONNECT Facebook | Instagram NEXT SHOW Feb 16th @ Selina’s, Sydney LISTEN
“Hatchie – having been in about a thousand more amazing bands than you – can pretty much do no wrong. Which is exactly what she does tonight. This is such good pop, with such power and charm all at the same time, it’s like getting hurt. Imagine the nicest, calmest person you’ve ever met smashing […]
“You know when you have a dream that is so hardcore and so real you’d swear it all actually happened? There you go. That’s Dianas in action.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157692429490604″]
“Leroy Francis has some bee-yoo-tiful moves. Soulful vocals over twitchy guitars, smooth garage, raw and full of heart.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter [flickr_set id=”72157663498790437″]
