Join Garden Rockers Day Moon for their farewell show, as they celebrate the release of new EP Down the Rabbit Hole. 

Over the past few years, Day Moon has cultivated a reputation around the country for a good boogie. But the time has come to bring this boogie to a close, and so with heavy hearts: the final blaze of glory. To top it off, Day Moon will be celebrating the release of the band’s new EP, Down the Rabbit Hole, out on the 13th of March on all streaming platforms. 

Supported by sister band re:ruby, come send Day Moon off with us!

UK protest singer Grace Petrie has become a force on the international folk scene, known for her razor-sharp lyrics, fierce politics and laugh-out-loud wit on stage. Often compared to Billy Bragg, she writes songs that rally, comfort and cut straight to the bone, tackling themes of feminism, queer identity and social justice with passion and bite. 

Dutch/New Zealand visionary trio MY BABY are set to return to Aotearoa for a packed seven-show tour across the country, celebrating their most recent album Echo.

Gen Fricker (Question Everything, Have You Been Paying Attention?, triple j) is a woman in search of a good time. Too bad the world is ending.

In 2026 Lloyd Langford will have been a professional stand-up comedian for twenty years. And it doesn't get any easier. Not the comedy but writing these little blurbs. 

A brand-new stand-up comedy show from a man that sounds like a YouTube video played a half speed. Come along and hear about Lloyd's problems with every other single person on earth. May contain jokes about giraffes, clouds and salt.  

*Note: The show will mainly be in Vietnamese

The Listener Lounge is a new home for Vietnamese artists and music lovers, inviting you to experience each song as a small gallery of stories, emotions and sounds. After more than a decade of hosting music events for the Vietnamese community in Melbourne, we’re now gathering that journey under one shared banner.

Every Thursday night join the Kindred House Band. Playing Jazz, House, Funk & Hip Hop with rotating band members each week.
