As a prelude to the third annual cinema program, The Shadow Electric is once again opening up its band room.
With a range of nforgettable shows over 10 days and nights from November 1st through November 10th 2013, The Shadow Electric Band Room follows on from the successful March of the Bands program from earlier in the year that saw a cutting edge selection of fresh, emerging talent playing to Melbourne audiences at the exciting outdoor cinema venue.
Following on from announcing the first of the 2013 program, including an EP Launch from Courtney Barnett, the Tex Perkins-fronted The Ape, Pluto Jonze, Little Scout, Palms and more, The Shadow Electric has added more shows and features to the already impressive lineup.
The new shows include an opening night (invite only) party featuring local rock iconoclasts ScotDrakula and Citizen Sex, a Matinee show from tour-hewn sextet The Hello Morning, and a Sunday soiree with the incomporable Ben Salter and The Spoils.
Several support acts have been added too! The Ape will be supported by garage outfit Mesa Cosa, The Bombay Royale will be supported by San Lazaro, Karate Boogaloo and DJ Chris Gill, Little Scout will be joined by I, a Man and Courtney Barnett and The Courtney Barnetts’ will launch their second EP with support from the always incredible Teeth and Tongue on Friday 8th November.
The Shadow Electric Band room, located in the oldest building at The Abbotsford Convent is a truly unique, intimate and surreal venue for live music. The room holds all the charm of a communist-era warehouse in Berlin, whilst boasting a production and installation at the level we expect from The Shadow Electric team.
With a fine musical selection and a unique setting, these shows are not to be missed!
