Doors 2pm
All Ages
Four genre-breaking bands take the stage at Nighthawks for an afternoon show
BLACK DIME CABARET
The brain-child of Brandon Young, a theatrical and thrilling progressive rock tale that is as sweeping as it is immersive. It is often compared to bands such as The Dear Hunter, My Chemical Romance, Oingo Boingo, and The Decemberists. Yet while their epic concept album sequence (beginning with Act I: Nefarious Schemes to Murder Lady Midnight) provides the core of Black Dime Cabaret, the story is enhanced by an ambitious multiverse spanning side projects and books.
BEAUTIFUL BEDLAM
A powerhouse of the Melbourne progressive rock scene, Beautiful Bedlam bring theatre, drama, and a melodic and manic blend of progressive/alternative rock music, with hints of jazz, metal and more!
FABULOUS CONTRAPTION
A living, breathing machine constructed from modern jazz, experimental metal and progressive rock. Their music moves from slick and streamlined to primordial chaos, from calmly hypnotic grooves to frenetic punk chaos. You’ll hear soaring solos, open-structured improvisations, intricate synthesiser and guitar lines, dirty grooves, and all manner of metric mayhem.
CHAOS THEORY ORCHESTRA
A four piece Alt-Fusion band, hailing from the North-East suburbs of Naarm/Melbourne. Their style is an amalgamation of intricate drums, thoughtful harmony, and concise melody. With influence from such artists as Yussef Dayes, Radiohead, and Hiatus Kaiyote, they are sure to enamour you with their eclectic groove. Their sound is continually evolving.
