Newtown vinyl record store Repressed Records has exapaned its Vivid Live line-up to include Miss Destiny, Lucy Cliche, Kitchen’s Floor, Fake (BV / Cassius Select), Angie, Francis Plagne, Skyline and Horse Macgyver (Live Visuals).
Ben Marshall, Vivid LIVE curator, said: “It’s no secret that music venues and touring festivals are facing new challenges across the country. The Sydney Opera House’s artistic & cultural contribution to contemporary music has never been more important and we’re very proud to champion local artistic communities like Repressed Records, Goodgod, Mad Racket and Future Classic. They’re a critical part of our musical ecosystem and remain uncompromising in their hunger for excellence and ambition.”
Repressed Records’ Nic Warnock said: “To celebrate 15 years of Repressed Records we’ve put together a line-up that reflects our vision of what a music community can be in 2017. From roots in youth centre hardcore punk to bedroom electronic experimentation, we think all the acts are linked by the ever-evolving ‘do-it-yourself’ music tradition that can break through the mainstream mould. Like our previous collaborations with the Opera House, consider this your friendly neighbourhood store guarantee that we’ll knock ya socks off on the waterfront outdoor stage at Vivid LIVE!”
The Repressed Records gig is June 1 from 5pm at Northern Broadwalk, Sydney.
