Opening weekend of Illuminate Adelaide Live @ The Lab showcases the talent of both new and old friends of The Lab, presenting a triple header with Big Yawn, No News and Georgia Oatley.
Renowned for their energetic and unrelenting live performances Big Yawn (Naarm / Melb) present a unique fusion of experimental electronic music. Drawing on a wide influence of jazz, krautrock, and early electronica the group deliver an unforgettable sonic experience full of sweeping synthesizers, motorik percussion, and disorienting dub FX.
Joining in support will be the Kaurna /Naarm based instrumental trio No News, weaving analogue electronica with jazz fusion to dynamic effect. Opening the night will be the eclectic electronic compositions of Georgia Oatley, who’s expressive vocals traverse influences from the avant-garde, electronica, traditional folk, and hip-hop.
Visual collaboration across the night will be provided by local artist Miles Dunne, who’s work pairs reactive visuals with pulsing colour to create a hypnotic and rhythmic pallet across The Lab’s 50sqm of LED screens.
In this special co-curated program with The Lab at ILA, light and sound converge over two back to back weekends to present a series of exciting and immersive live music events.
With a focus on technological interplay, experimentation, and commanding performances, for the 3rd consecutive year Live @ The Lab will showcase a handpicked selection of cutting-edge local and national acts.
Expect hypnotic rhythm, movement, and sound paired with dynamic visuals basking in the glow of The Labs jaw dropping 50sqm of LED screens. Check out the full Live @ The Lab program here.
