no lights no lycra

at the banks reserve pavilion, perth

A dance night based on abandoning self-consciousness and professionalism through no lights and no talking as you bust a move, NLNL has finally hit Perth after incarnations across the Eastern States.

Whilst flirting and showing off are moves that are sacrificed, what emerges is self-confidence invested within the purity of dancing as well as a killer work-out to boot. Not to mention the uplifting sight of a town hall filled with shadowy apparitions shifting shapes to Getting Jiggy With It.

The focus is always on the meltdown rather than build-up.

Rainy Day Women launch

at mojos bar, FREMANTLE

RAINY DAY WOMEN launch Runaway. It has been a big 12 months for young Fremantle rockers Rainy Day Women. After releasing their debut EP Sleigh Bed in February, the title track and lead single was the 8th most added track to Australian radio in the week of its release. Among the stations that vouched their love for the song was triple j, who featured the song as part of their best new releases program and continued to hold the song on rotation for 7 months and counting.

The band has capitalized on the national exposure by playing a number of festivals, including Groovin' the Moo, St Kilda Festival, Fuse Festival and the WAMi Festival, along with supporting a number of high profile national acts. To add to the list of accolades, the band were nominated for ‘2012 Breakthrough act and Most promising new act at the WAMi awards. To the public eye, the band has made inroads that may usually take a band years to establish. However, despite the quick success of the collective, individually the band members have been sharpening their chops for many years. It is apparent on new single Runaway that singer/songwriter Dylan Ollivierre has honed in on his own song-writing style and the band are hotter than ever.

With support from: RUNNER, THE FLOWER DRUMS & MAT CAMMERANO

Presale tickets are avail from $10+bf or $15 at the door on the night from 8pm.

Making his debut for Fluid is multi talented and musically driven newcomer SCREECH.

Despite playing a wide variety of sounds (which has seen him play all over as well as outside the metro area), his DNB set will be a reflection of his ethos of spinning strictly groove based music.

Benoît Pioulard

at the bird, northbridge

Since a young age, Thomas Meluch has been fascinated by natural sounds and the textures of decay. He began playing piano before his feet could reach the pedals, and for more than a decade has sought to create a unique sonic environment by combining remnants of pop song structures with the lushness and unpredictability of field recordings. A veteran drummer of a half dozen bands and an avid collector of instruments and analog devices, Meluch relies on guitar and voice as the bases for his work as Benoît Pioulard. (from Kranky.net)

Saturday, November 10

Launching album number 4, See the World, Matt Gresham is about to see & take on the world. Already with 3 successful albums, an army of loyal followers and an armful of song-writing awards, 24 year old acoustic artist Matt Gresham has won the respect and admiration of audiences, musicians and critics around the world.

After inspiring performances at the Fairbridge, Nannup and Nanga festivals, Matt's live act has proven to mesmerize new audiences while also drawing the attention of major artists such as John Butler and Xavier Rudd.

Possessing an almost magical ability to instantly connect with new audiences and engage them with his infectious music and masterful stage presence, Matt Gresham regularly attracts a 400 strong crowd to his West Australian shows.

Pulling from influences which stretch back over the past half century, Matt has a truly individual sound with a positive message. He has a joyful and exuberant style which floats his audiences from soul to the packed dance floor. Spine-tingling vocals soar above Matt's catchy melodies and driving rhythms. Show starts at 7:30 pm.

Tammy’s father, Chester, is back after fifteen years. He’s kidnapped her at gunpoint and murdered her aunt and her mother. He thieves, kills, womanises and drinks. But worst of all, he wants to bond.

Fresh from its Melbourne debut, Perth playwright Nathaniel Moncrieff’s “wonderful” (Sometimes Melbourne) and “witty” (The Age) black comedy follows hot on the heels of the Fringe World smash Sleepyhead –winner of a Writers’ Fellowship award.

A heart-warming tale of murder, car chases, alcoholism, bad parenting and yaks – prepare yourself for the sad, funny and tragic ride to Tinkertown.

for the beaufort st recipe book

The Beaufort Street Festival is on again this year and the countdown has begun!

We have many new exciting ideas and programs happening this year, including a far greater focus on food! Given that Beaufort St has such a diverse range of dining opportunities we felt it was only fitting to celebrate that.

As a part of the food program, we will be producing a community recipe book, "Recipes and Ramblings; A Food Journey from Beaufort St and Beyond" which will feature recipes from those on the street and its surrounds. Chefs, shop owners and residents will combine forces to fill the book with their favourite recipes.

at limelite theatre, wanneroo

Can you figure out “whodunit”? That’s the challenge Limelight Theatre is giving audiences this September and October with its murder-mystery production Sleuth.

Written by Anthony Shaffer, it won a 1971 Tony Award for best play and was adapted by playwright Harold Pinter for a 2007 film starring Michael Caine and Jude Law, directed by Kenneth Branagh. Caine was also in the original 1972 film with Sir Laurence Olivier.

As the war progresses and the Allied forces strike back, the Soviet Union and Germany threaten to invade the refugees’ fragile safe haven in Lithuania. With borders closing, the refugees are desperate; their future looks dire whichever force may invade.

But in times of injustice, help sometimes comes from unexpected sources…
