Dada Records

John Grader is Kabouter's Forest! He plays at 5.30ish.

Greg Taw is the Ghost of 29 Megacycles. He plays after John and before...
http://www.myspace.com/theghostof29megacycles

...Dada's own Jess Hutchens as Jane Harris. She plays last.

This is the last chance to see Greg play before he leaves for Melbourne. Also most likely the last chance to see Jess play before she leaves for Europe. John doesn't have plans on moving away as far as i know but, it is his second gig so is still worth making an effort to see.

Traianos is bringing his urn. We're going to fill it with water. We're also bringing tea, sugar, milk, cups and spoons. You can use all of them. FOR FREE.

Love and Care Cafe are doing their Gado Gado and Chicken Satay Sticks again. They cost money, but are unreasonably cheap.

LAUNCH THEIR EP ‘WE MAKE PARTY’ ON JULY 16 AT AMPLIFER BAR, PERTH AND JULY 23 AT SETTLERS TAVERN, MARGARET RIVER

Perth indie-rock band good little fox are ready to unleash a new EP called ‘We Make Party’ (out August 6 through independent/MGM) that will have you dancing on the most bounciest part of your shoe.

Since coming together in late 2006 the band has released the singles Jealousy and Love, Lust and Interest, received radio airplay on Triple J, and have shared the stage with Jebediah, Hoodoo Gurus, The Paper Scissors, Abdoujaparov (UK) and The Getaway Plan.

While they’ve been on a hiatus of late (mainly due to vocalist/guitarist Carl Fox jetting off to Switzerland and releasing an indietronica album called Chunky Rainbow) the trio are back with a musical offering encompassing driving guitars, flamboyant bass lines and plenty of expletives guaranteed to cause offense and/or dancing.

It’s all happening on Friday, July 16 at Amplifier Bar, Perth with support from brazen rock’n’rollers The Jackards and new-wave rockers Luna Parade. 8pm. Tickets $10 on the door or $15 with a CD.

The Perth show is followed by a launch down south on Friday, July 23 at Settlers Tavern, Margaret River with support from acoustic singer/songwriter Tree. 9:30pm. Free entry.

PICA's Winter Exhibitions

loads coming up at pica ..

PICA is pleased to present three exciting new exhibitions over the winter months.

Rounds is a group exhibition, featuring works by some of Western Australia's most exciting young artists. Curated by Sarah Rowbottam, this exhibition takes over PICA's ground floor and deals with the idea of peer influence.

Upstairs in the Westend Gallery is a solo exhibition by respected WA artist Bevan Honey, which include massive structures knitted out of cray pots, drawings and a burn-out machine!

In the screen space is the first ever screening in Australia of Spanish/German artist Ignacio Uriate's work: The History of the Typewriter Recited by Michael Winslow. Winslow may be familiar to some as the star of the 80s Police Academy films with the unique 'sound effects' talent. This film is accompanied by a series of prints.
