Live Review: Giraffage – Oxford Art Factory, Sydney (17.08.13)

Giraffage a.k.a. Charlie Yin took to the stage, still and unassuming, until he began playing and grooving along to his own music. He is no macbook act – working the board in real time and constructing his own soundscape. Donned in black t-shirt and gold chain, he suggests an illusion of simplicity, while dipping into…

Live Review: Wax Witches – The World Bar, Sydney (09.08.13)

Wax Witches is the solo project of Alex Wall, one half of garage poppers Bleeding Knees Club. It’s got a similar sound to BKC but with even grittier guitar work and bratty lyrics. Wax Witches has an online stream of weird and wacky mash-ups linked to pop culture and 90s high life but in the…

Live Review: Whitley + Esther Holt + Post Paint – Oxford Art Factory, Sydney (18.07.13)

It’s always a pleasure to go out for a night of soulful, (mostly) acoustic music when it seems that many are swamped by the electronic. Never mind the knowledge that attending a sideshow (this one for Splendour In The Grass) means that you get up close and personal to the act with the time and…

Live Review: Willow Beats + Stoney Road DJs + Ocean – Spectrum, Sydney (08.06.13)

A smoky room with damp blue lighting and black leather sofas doesn’t seem the ideal spot for a dance gig where the stickiest floor on Oxford St was home to the Willow Beats EP launch. But the venue was strangely cosy and, despite their niche work, it was a sold out show for Sydney. Stoney…

Live Review: Tonight Alive + Because We Can + A Sleepless Melody – The Factory Theatre (16.05.13)

When I saw Tonight Alive at Manning Bar just over a year ago, it was easy to see that they had a lot of potential. However, as strong as their performance was, they were still a fairly new band — on stage, their presence merely asked for the audience’s attention. When I saw them this…

Live Review: FOLK CLUB Featuring Evan and the Brave + The Falls + Jordan Leser – The Soda Factory (15.05.13)

Sometimes all people want is a drink and song. Halfway between a small gig and your friend’s living room, the Folk Club embraces all that is cosy about folk music while giving artists the chance to perform at full force in front of an audience they can actually see (and talk to afterwards). Folk Club…
