20 November

Australian a-cappella gem Ela Stiles built her reputation as an adept musicians throughout the miscellaneous music scenes of Australia, Stiles has released a Bedroom Suck record comprised solely of mesmerising layers of rhythmic a-cappella. The night will also feature the dexterous guitarist Yonatan Gat, known for his genre-bending and improvised approach.

Rarely has ‘unique’ been as aptly applied to an artist as it is to Australian Ela Stiles. Formerly the singer in rock band Bushwalking, her debut album consists of entirely a capella performances; her voice is looped, layered and incessantly toyed with, to the point where it’s hard to believe you’re listening to just one person.

As far away from the three-chord strummers as it’s possible to be, Yonatan Gat is a dizzyingly talented virtuoso guitarist whose versatility is matched by his dexterity. A former member of Monotonix, since striking out on his own he’s applied his talents to rock, psychedelic, free jazz, and African music, as well as numerous collaborations with Portuguese drummer Igor Domingues. He’s signed to Joyful Noise, which is a pretty apt description of his stunning riffs.
