Christian Lee Hutson (USA)

6:15pm Phoenix Central Park

JH

Christian Lee Hutson is a pretty core part of the Phoebe Bridgers expanded universe - co-songwriter for Bridgers, Boygenius and Better Community Oblivion Centre. In town as part of the aforementioned's backing band, he's doing two special free shows (entry by ballot allocation only) at 6:30pm and 8:15pm in the remarkable Phoenix Central Park space. His music goes almost to the extremes of whisper-quiet folk, gorgeously understated but well placed. Now signed to American label ANTI-, he also supported Bridgers' Oxford Art Factory tour back in 2018 (what a different time that was) - selling CD-Rs up the back and everything!

Pleasure: Endurance Session

6:30pm Phoenix Central Park

JH

After having run these "Endurance Session" events in a warehouse in Marrickville two years in a row (and with last year's probably up there as one of my gigs of the year), it's exciting to see Pleasure's noteworthy concept evolve into a space like Phoenix Central Park. The concept is simple: Adam Connelly (ex Megastick Fanfare), Jono Boulet (Party Dozen, ARSE, millions of other things) and Hugh Deacon (The Good Boys) get together and play improvisational music for 6 hours straight, with many friends rotating in and out to help evolve the structure of the event. Entry by ballot now, which has closed - but you might get lucky if you keep your eyes peeled.
