Big Cat returns to the Retreat with friends Social Street and Meraki Minds!
Big Cat is a 5 piece neo-soul/art-rock group that focuses on storytelling; drawing on elements of jazz, latin and rock. With a strong emphasis on groove, the group employs an angular, free flowing approach to harmony in their songwriting. They combine traditional elements of classic songwriting with a more modern, creative connection to rhythm and time to create music that is familiar, yet exciting and fresh. From ethereal soundscapes to big, dramatic crescendos, the band uses a large dynamic range to express their ideas and emotions. Big Cat brings energy and passion to their performance.
Social Street is a gorgeous 8 piece ensemble bringing a rich, funky soul sound adorned with lush vocal harmonies.
Meraki Minds is a Ballarat-based 5 piece indie-pop band serving 'family Christmas vibes' with fun, jangly guitars and dreamy vocals.
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.
