Jassy (Robinson and Robertson, BOGMIND), and Darlene (AA Matheson, Deer Head Apparition) will be playing a collaborative set as their duo WE1 XAM, celebrating the triple launch of their albums:

WE1 XAM – Middle America

Darlene – Another Day in Paradise

Jassy – Caught a Live One

WE1 XAM is FM and analogue synth meltdowns, new age (gap) hippy shit, once described as sounding like “being in the womb and then feeling so alone… but in a good way!”

JASMIN WING-YIN LEUNG

CELIAC
Celiac aka Miel makes huge and righteous cybergoth jams about confronting society about its bullshit ableist deterrents and attitudes, and their disability advocacy journey, putting a spotlight on the way society invisiblises people with disabilities.

This event takes place on the stolen land of the Wurundjeri people and we pay respects to elders past and present, as well as all First Nations people to who we owe immeasurable reparations for harm done through ongoing colonisation and genocide. The venue and artists will contribute part of the takings to pay the rent.

This venue has limitations to accessibility. There are small steps at the entrance and to the beer garden exit which leads to the toilets. Parking can be difficult due to it being a busy street but there are spaces to pull up for dropping off. The number 11 tram stops at the entrance to the venue at stop 17.

The venue has gender neutral bathrooms.

You can text the organiser on 0400804316 if you are feeling unsafe at this event, or if you would like someone to talk to or introduce you to people if you are coming on your own, and you will be treated with respect and discretion.
