with Gecko and Medicated Love
$15 on the door
Coolabah Kings Naarm scrap-rock scumbags, Coolabah Kings, are a three-piece outfit consisting of Conor Walsh on vocals, Harry Anderson on guitar, and Ben Christie on drums. Coolabah Kings burst onto the scene in September 2021 with their debut single, ‘Spineless.' This tongue-in-cheek retelling of a true story takes listeners on a journey to the wrong side of the tracks. 'Spineless' found its place on 'A Long Time Alone 4,’ a compilation produced by Blow Blood Records. The album received recognition as the Album of the Week by 3RRR in February 2022.
Coolabah Kings continued their momentum in March 2022 with the release of their debut EP, 'Killing Time.’ This 5-song time capsule was recorded during the peaks of COVID lockdowns, capturing a unique moment in time. Closing out 2022, Coolabah Kings unveiled the single 'Monday Morning,’ a jangly, fuzzy pop banger delving into the drudgery of the working week and the haunting paranoia of wasted youth.
Marking their entry into 2023, Coolabah Kings launched their single 'Stay Dangerous,’ a rambunctious toe-tapper that explores the rapid disconnect with a self-destructive friend. This dynamic track even features the backing vocals of local legend Tommy Dynamite from Tommy Dynamite & The Explosions. In June 2023, Coolabah Kings dropped their second single of 2023, 'Get You Sorted.’ A ferocious, fuzzy garage blast that dives headfirst into the tricky business of helping out a friend tangled up in some relentless mental health problems.

Heavy Hope (UK)
Heavy Hope
Friday 23rd February, 2024 8:30pm
with Your Girl Pho and Lamont
$15 on the door
HEAVY HOPE: Female producer and singer-songwriter, HEAVY HOPE, merges the genres of Alternative Indie and R&B, whilst touching on Lo-fi and accents of Pop. Her two-faced narratives quickly turn from the spiritual to the angry. The somber and blasé sadness in pining for someone then flips to the opposite end of the spectrum, where hating men for not having enough money is thrown to the forefront.
HEAVY HOPE entices you by providing the calm before her own storm. Songwriting and making music in the comfort of her bedroom from the age of 14 - all of Hope's projects are produced, arranged, engineered, written, and performed by her. She also directs, produces, and edits her visuals, consistently bringing her multi-media passions together.

YOUR GIRL PHO: Your Girl Pho is the vivacious on stage persona of Perth based vocalist/producer Phoebe Gunson. In a short time she racked up a slew of coveted support slots with the likes of Post Malone, The Avalanches, E^ST, Kllo, Alice Ivy & spots on acclaimed festivals Groovin’ The Moo, Falls Festival, Laneway, Listen Out, FOMO, Festival Vaiven (Mexico), Music Matters (Singapore), Strawberry Fields, Brunswick Music Festival and more.
Pho is known for her big vocal range, high energy and live looping during shows. A dynamic young artist that bounces with ease across genres, ranging from somber, nostalgic R&B to bright, colourful electro-pop that will have you dancing in your seat. The power, sass and closeness of Pho’s voice is bigger than the limitations of genre. Acid Stag acknowledged her ability to experiment with her sound, referring to her single ‘Don’t Wanna’ as an “extremely impressive cross-genre offering that will leave you gobsmacked.” The crown jewel in her fizzing, elasticated blend of genres, Pho’s “soulful vocals” (NYLON) have enjoyed airplay with triple j, Beats 1, FBi Radio, RTRFM, 4ZZZ and more - via her own work as well as collaborations with electronic producers Palais, Chiseko, Tayrell and Ukiyo.

LAMONT: The Melbourne music scene has a new doe-eyed kid on the block. Lamont is an indie-singer songwriter with honesty-soaked songs. A chronic oversharer, Lamont's music tells the unfiltered truth of growing up and the trials that often come with it.
Writing songs from the age of 10, music became Lamont's second language. It was a way to explain feelings and thoughts she couldn't put into sentences. The now 20-something songwriter has a plethora of songs written and waiting to be heard. With an amalgamation of influences, Lamont's debut single boasts lushes harmonies, intricate melodies, and a catchy hook.

Major Entertainer (US)
Major Entertainer
Wednesday 21st February, 2024 8:30pm
with Franklin's Mint and Dr El Suavo
$15 + BF VIA Humanitix
MAJOR ENTERTAINER is a one-man entertainment extravaganza that has been wowing audiences across North America and the UK for years, and with his one-city Australian tour, Los Angeles-based Mike Hickey (originally from Ottawa, Canada) can check another dream off his list as FULFILLED!
Backed by lively musical tracks featuring and produced by such kindred spirits as Trey Spruance (MR BUNGLE), David Kendrick (DEVO, SPARKS), Don Bolles (GERMS, 45 GRAVE), and Jason Schimmel (SECRET CHIEFS 3), the show is a musical and vocal tour-de-force, accentuated with vintage synthesizers and glitched-out noise-making machines. Mike quickly draws newcomers into his playful world of horror and insomnia with humorous and haunting lyrics, and ever-changing spoken interludes. There's a reason NEIL HAMBURGER has brought him along as opener on an unprecedented 47 tours, not to mention MAJOR ENTERTAINER's stints with ERIC ANDRE, TOM GREEN, PINBACK, and SECRET CHIEFS 3. His 12" EP "MIKE" contains the "hits", while multiple limited-edition lathe-cut releases are highly-prized by those lucky enough to have snagged them
SUPPORT FROM:
Franklin's Mint multi-disciplined musician, Phil Franklin (member of prolific American Avant Garde and Noise Rock groups; Faxed Head and The Secret Chiefs 3) is creating a different sound from his decorated past endeavors and delivering his newest creation, Franklin’s Mint.
