snarskicircuslindyband

8:00pm The Great Club

JH

I'm not sure why they renamed the show from being their names to "snarskicircuslindyband" but this is Lindy Morrison (The Go-Betweens) and Rob Snarski (I don't know who that is)*. I'd love to see a Lindy Morrison band, I reckon it would rule. No support act - two sets. * From the Blackeyed Susans, you philistine. - CW

SIMA Jazz: NOW fest triple bill

W/ Mike Nock (NZ), Surfing Soundwaves, Believe

8:00pm The Great Club

JH

SIMA = Sydney Improvised Music Association. Line-up featuring noted pianist Mike Nock, a three-piece ensemble led by Freyja Garbett, and BELIEVE: I saw their debut performance last week and they absolutely blew the roof off Church St Studios. BELIEVE have Laurence Pike (of PVT / Szun Waves / Triosk / Liars) providing his distinct style on the kit, with a quartet that under no circumstances lets themselves be overshadowed by Loz's broad range of experience and reputation. You can find some video footage of that performance on the SydneyMusic Discord server under #gigs-photos if you're keen to check it out.

Small Fry Rock

W/ Phil Jamieson, Baby Velvet

11:30am The Great Club

DJY

An adorable initiative in which big-name artists play shows for small punters – we're talking toddlers, mostly, who will often just wander onto the stage wielding balloons. So much fun you'll be tempted to go childless just for the experience. Previous headliners include Jon Toogood of Shihad, Ben Lee, Josh Pyke and Toby Martin.
