Come on down to 74-76 Johnston St Fitzroy and enjoy the music of 3 banging psychedelic bands!!
Headliners aplegate are a 5-piece improvised psychedelic rock band from Castlemaine, based in Naarm/Melbourne. Live performances manifest as a continual fluid set. At home in a bush doof, or, on a big stage, aplegate specialise in live improvisation, feeding from the energy of the crowd, interwoven with songs and arrangements that are melodic and moving.
Making their live debut at the Old Bar stage as a 5 piece band, lovesick dream will be playing a dynamic set of their dreamy alt rock originals. Their music takes on a wide range of influences, with a little something for everyone, and will be adored by fans of Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, Hiatus Kaiyote and more.
ikaria - as Daedalus, the skillfully wrought, constructed the labyrinth of Crete through cleft carvings of unknowable passages with a dual purpose - that is, to keep what is in, in; and that which was out, out. So too did his son leave with a dual purpose to his sunburnt plot - the knowledge that we cannot bear freedom on wings of wax; but also the name of this band from where Helios left his body to lay between passages of the saline. Thanks Icarus. He would have loved Em
