FACEBOOK EVENT

Come to a special church service Sunday July 16th at The Retreat Hotel. Live performances by the atheist anthem collective STAR/TIME with special guests, the homemade hymns of Sky Needle.

STAR/TIME

The Naarm based 7 piece improvisational gang owes as much to electric period Miles as the garage punk it’s players came from. The Marxist collective currently features players from The Dirtbombs, The Electric Guitars, and The Paul Kidney Experience. Appropriately taking their name from both a James Brown record and a Sun Ra record, STAR/TIME has evolved to its current state merging free psych sonics with no wave, prog jams, funk and fusion to create a vibe alternately hypnotic and disturbing.

Sky Needle

Sky Needle perform on self made instruments operated by Alex Cuffe, Joel Stern, Sarah Byrne, Daniel Jenatsch, Alan Nguyen, Michael Donnelly, Ross Manning. Glen Schenau and others. Sky Needle lived in Brisbane and now everywhere.

The Retreat Hotel would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which The Retreat now stands, and pay our respects to all elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that sovereignty has never been ceded and that our venue operates on stolen land.
