Experience the Phenomenon of LARGE MIRAGE
Step into the electrifying world of LARGE MIRAGE, a rock band that defies conventions and revives the golden era of rock with a modern twist. Channeling the spirit of the late 60s and early 70s, this band delivers a live performance that’s as enigmatic as it is exhilarating.
With influences spanning The Who, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac and The Doors, LARGE MIRAGE blends retro vibes with a fresh, innovative edge. Their unique sound pays homage to classic rock legends while carving out a distinctive niche that resonates with today's audience. Expect powerful dual vocals reminiscent of Jefferson Airplane, soaring harmonies like CSNY, and an unmatched dynamism that sets them apart from any other band on the scene.
No two LARGE MIRAGE shows are ever the same. Their setlists are a thrilling adventure, featuring original tracks that evolve in unexpected ways. The band’s stage presence is a spectacular display of controlled energy, featuring melodic beats, killer hooks, harmonies and Daniel's intricate drum rhythms that would make John Bonham proud. LARGE MIRAGE is a force of nature, and it’s the combination of all its elements and chemistry between the players that makes their live performance so engaging. Blake’s incredible bass lines set the stage for Kolya Chan’s dazzling guitar solos, which bring to mind the styles of Clapton & Page with flashes of Hendrix, and Townsend’s iconic moves in full flight. Malia’s commanding vocals and her confident stage presence weave emotions and dramatics into the mix, creating an unforgettable experience that you need to see to believe.
Joining the Sydney based juggernaut, LGM on their Melbourne single launch, are Tasmanian/UK’s finest emerging band HOLiDAY MYSTICS, plus Melbourne pals Ramona Sky (who’ve recently released new single Hypnotise) and will open proceedings at The Retreat in Brunswick for a night to remember. Don’t sleep on this one- all 3 bands pull a respectable crowd and this show will sell out before the night.
Don’t miss your chance to witness this retro, psychedelic, rock revolution in action. Secure your tickets early and be part of the extraordinary journey that is LARGE MIRAGE ! New single release details to be announced soon. Like and follow the band’s socials for more info and set times.
The enigmatic lineup of LARGE MIRAGE consists of guitarist/vocalist Kolya Chan, bassist Blake Rochester, drummer Daniel Croft, and vocalist Malia (Molly) Hoffman
