Their positive band name goes hand-in-hand with the shiny and optimistic pop tunes they produce. The opening band of the evening was a duo known as Sures and they were joined by two additional members for the show. With their set-up, composition and music, some comparisons to Cloud Control seemed apt, if not inevitable.
Made in Japan made an appearance at Goodgod Small Club in celebration of the impending release of their EP. I unfortunately missed out on seeing the opening acts but made it in just in time to see the main show.
As the night started off with a devilish Oporto ‘Feisty’ burger and ended with angelic Feist-like vocals, somehow in a parallel universe the evening also transitioned like a time machine in reverse, with supporting act Swimwear delivering synth-tastic sounds from the '80s, and featuring act Melodie Nelson sending us back to the swinging '60s.
On his first headline tour of the year, Andy Bull brings his 'Phantom Pains' tour to Sydney with Spring Skier!
Celebrating the single release of her new track 'War', Gossling with Ryan Meeking and Boy Outside hosted a fantastic evening in Sydney. Lachlan Mitchell brings us these photos...
Celebrating the release of single "Cold Feet", Jack Ladder & The Dreamlanders played their upcoming album Hurtsville in its entirety at Goodgod Small Club on Friday night, to promote its impending release after three years of waiting. The freezing weather and seemingly underground confines of Goodgod were perfectly apt for an album filled with atmospheric tones, and as a fan of Jack Ladder's previous releases I had high expectations.
Sometimes in the world of music, things just match up perfectly. Such is the case with tonight's openers, The Fearless Vampire Killers. It's a great rock'n'roll name and they, in turn, are a great rock'n'roll band. Kicking out the jams is their business, mixing in fuzzed-out guitar jangle with a love of early surf music and the freakier moments in The Kinks' discography.
Melbournian super troopers (and angels of the musical kind) Alpine launched their EP Zürich with Boy in a Box and The Fearless Vampire Killers. A killer night of music at Goodgod.
Rumble is a new night at GoodGod dedicated to bringing together the obscure and adventurous sounds of Sydney and Australian music. Tonight was an experiment organised by Cec Condon, drummer from The Mess Hall, and it was bound to be a rollercoaster ride, especially if you read anything about it beforehand. Joining him on stage was a versatile collective of musicians including members of Wolfmother, Spod, Bridezilla and Holly Throsby.
