Martha Wainwright @ Elisabeth Murdoch Hall
I haven’t really kept up with Martha Wainwright’s music over the last ten years or so, but she’s always such a pleasure to see live.
Nick Cave @ Plenary Theatre
Nick Cave’s solo concert was an absolute treat, with stark and vulnerable renditions of songs from his stellar, decades-spanning career.
Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show 2024
Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show is held every year at the beautiful Carlton Gardens and Royal Exhibition Building. I never used to attend, until three years ago when just about every big event looked good in the aftermath of Covid lockdowns. Since then, it’s become a March favourite and every year, I look forward to the show gardens, floral displays, sculptures, gardening booths and people watching.
MSO: The Planets @ Hamer Hall
A magical evening at the Arts Centre, where I finally got to experience one of my all-time favourite classical suites, Gustav Holst’s The Planets.
The Breeders @ Forum Theatre
Awesome start to the new year of live music, with a fantastic show from old favourites that cut through my Monday lethargy.
Foy Vance @ The Croxton
I had a good time at what is probably my last music concert of 2023, despite the annoying chatterboxes at the bar.
Sudan Archives @ 170 Russell
I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this concert, but Brittney Parks a.k.a. Sudan Archives delivered a fun, energised set of sexy swagger and violin shredding… and even some traditional Irish music.
The Radiohead Project @ Primrose Potter Salon
Sometimes a last-minute decision does pay off! I had a fantastic time at this short but lovely concert that reinvented Radiohead’s music for a jazz quartet with strings.
The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit & The Rings of Power @ Hamer Hall
