SUMMARY:The Velvet Club - Rosemount Hotel\, Perth
DESCRIPTION:Naarm’s indie rock favourities\,The Velvet Club are hitting the road this August for their 4 date Australian tour\, in support of their debut album ‘Are You Falling In Love?’. The tour takes the band across the county with shows in Sydney\, Brisbane and Perth before finishing in for a home town show in Melbourne.  \nAre You Falling In Love? is the bands debut album\, and features fan favourites ‘We Don’t Talk’\, ‘Blue’ and ‘Anything’.Throughout the record’s 10 tracks\, The Velvet Club navigate mental health struggles\, relationship breakdowns\, friendship\, and solitude\, fuelled by jangly guitars and hooks that move from bright to melancholic and back again. The Velvet Club’s return to the hazy immediacy and raw\, unpolished charm of 2000s indie is what makes this album so familiar\, yet refreshing.  \nThe Australian tour will bring the bands iconic\, raw and energetic live performance that fans have come to know and love\, and promises a mix of new album tracks alongside previous fan favourites.

SUMMARY:CORNERSTONES
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTED AND PERFORMED BY DARLINGTON STRING QUARTET \nThe Darlington Quartet returns to the heartland of the quartet repertoire with masterworks by Beethoven and Brahms. The opus 18 quartets show the young Beethoven already beginning to redefine the string quartet\, something he would continue to do throughout his life. The String Quartet No. 1 in F major\, with its vigorous yet elegant opening movement\, heartfelt Adagio (inspired by the tomb scene in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet) and playful finale\, is no exception. Johannes Brahms\, notoriously self-critical\, reportedly destroyed 20 string quartets before allowing his opus 51 quartets to be published. The String Quartet No. 1 in C minor is quintessential Brahms – passionate and profound\, uniting heart and intellect. \nBookings open Friends 23 Jun Public 30 Jun

SUMMARY:Lowdown + Empire Blues
DESCRIPTION:Lowdown | 7.30pm++++++++++++Get ready for an unforgettable night of soulful rhythms and electrifying melodies as we present a brand-new blues band\, blending the best of Chicago and West Coast swing blues with a touch of Memphis soul. Featuring seasoned musicians from Perth’s vibrant blues scene\, this dynamic 5-piece ensemble promises to deliver a one-of-a-kind musical experience that will leave you craving more.Lowdown are: Adam Norton on harmonica and vocals\, Laurence Petre Allen on guitar and vocals\, Troy Shirlaw on drums and Hank Deberitz on bass and vocals. \nEmpire Blues | 9.00pm+++++++++++++++Empire Blues started as a casual conversation between two acquaintances\, Andrew McIlroy (Vice President PBC) and Alan Dawson in 2005. They had known each other since the early 80’s but besides a few fill in gigs had never formally played together. The idea was to create a British influenced blues band as all the local blues outfits were concentrating on American artists. A three piece was the easiest option and Gavin Kerr was added on drums but soon after Gavin’s work commitments resulted in Frank Shinall joining the band. Both Andrew and Alan had known Frank separately since the 70’s. Now 20+ years on the three friends have done more than 700 shows together and produced three albums of original material. They are one of Perth’s most consistent working bands. \n+++++++++++++DOORS OPEN 7PMENTRY: $15.00 (General Admission) | $10.00 (Members)

SUMMARY:Phantom Island Album Launch
DESCRIPTION:Phantom Island are thrilled to announce the release of their debut album\, Community! \nThis vinyl and digital release perfectly captures the band’s garage post-punk scrapbook. \n“Rolls Around” is summertime blues with 6% inflation compounded. \n“Adam” wanders over the earth: hungry\, forsaken and hugely unrepentant. \nTexture-wise\, it’s just a bit of a synth pedal masterpiece (as Phantom Island fans likely anticipated). \nCommunity is coming out on Igloo Records\, distributed through MGM.  \nProduced by Laurie Sinagra\, mastered by Joe Carra\, the album will be launched in style at Perth’s best-sounding venue with a fabulous roll-call of supporting acts – GreyGoo\, Macho Men and Phil Bartlett.  \nTix on sale now thorugh Oztix!

SUMMARY:HARRY MITCHELL & ALLIRA WILSON DUO - WA Jazz Composers in Concert
DESCRIPTION:WA Jazz Composers in Concert | WA Music Week12pm doors | 1pm show \nThe duo of Harry Mitchell and Allira Wilson draws on a longstanding musical partnership within the Australian jazz scene\, resulting in performances marked by ease\, intuition\, and deep mutual trust. In addition to reworking classic repertoire\, they perform original music that brings together sophisticated jazz harmony with a contemporary aesthetic – open forms\, subtle rhythmic textures\, and a refined lyrical voice. \nHarry Mitchell \nHarry has released six albums and was named Young Australian Jazz Musician of the Year at the 2017 Australian Bell Jazz Awards. The following year he won the West Australian Music (WAM) award for Best Pianist. As well\, he carried off the WAM Best Jazz Song award in 2017\, 2018 and 2020.Harry has played in the Perth International Jazz Festival\, Sydney Con Jazz Festival\, Melbourne Jazz Festival\, the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz and Blues and the Ubud Village Jazz Festival in Bali. Harry was selected as a finalist in the Wangaratta Jazz Festival’s 2021 National Jazz Awards’ piano competition. He has backed a range of artists from Australia’s Kate Ceberano to American saxophonist George Garzone\, and renowned vocalist Veronica Swift.Harry was recently the ABC Jazz Artist in Residence and you can hear his solo recordings from that time here.Harry studied at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts with a Masters in Composition. This recognition of the importance of composing to having an original voice\, was reflected in Harry’s first album\, released when he was twenty-one. Harry has devised his own approach to composing\, deciding first on various musical decisions\, such as the harmonic movements\, form\, and motivic development\, before writing a note. It is a method of writing that he continues to refine.Harry leads a number of bands including the Harry Mitchell Quintet\, his standards band TrioTrio\, with Vanderwal and bassist Karl Florisson which has released four albums\, with a live album release featuring saxophonist James Sandon in the pipeline. There is also his country music infused trio\, Quiet Country with Vanderwal and guitarist Harry Winton that plays originals and covers; and there was his acclaimed Paul Simon project with singer Allira Wilson. Unlike America where jazz guitarist Bill Frisell\, another influence has been hailed for his excursions into country music\, Harry laments that country music has a certain stigma in Australia. But he is not interested in chasing what is popular. His guiding principle is “striving for the artistic merit of the thing you are doing.’’ \nAllira WilsonAllira Wilson is one of Australia’s most exciting and sought after jazz and contemporary vocalists. An Australian Jazz Bell Award winner\, a twice Freedman Fellowship nominee\, a WAM (West Australian Music) Best Vocalist Nominee\, she has worked with notable artists and ensembles such as Jamie Oehlers\, Kate Ceberano\, Jim McNeely\, Gian Slater\, Guy Sebastian\, Barney McAll\, Invenio and WASO. Wilson recently recorded the highly acclaimed album ‘I am Like the Rain’ (5 stars Barry O’Sullivan)\, released on ABC Music in 2020. She is featured on recordings such as composer Alice Humphries’ ‘ECILA’\, the Rick Webster Project\, Freddie Grigsons ‘Duos’ and Barney McAll and Gian Slater’s Collobaration ‘Global Intimacy’. Wilson released her album ‘Rise and Fall’ in 2014. ‘Wilson took out best Australian jazz vocal award at the 2014 Bell Awards and this debut-album signals the arrival of an important new voice’ (John McBeath\, The Weekend Australian\, 4 stars). �She continues to work regularly in Australia’s jazz venues and is a mainstay among the Jazz Festival circuit right across Australia. She has performed at the Perth International Jazz Festival\, Melbourne Jazz Festival\, Wangaratta Jazz Festival and Melbourne’s White Night Festival.
