Essendon Airport – Live Instore

THURSDAY 23rd OCTOBER 6pm
ESSENDON AIRPORT – Live INSTORE performance
Join us next week as we honour the incredibly innovative analog synth embracing legends ESSENDON AIRPORT @the_hangar_1979 as they launch a classic project updated for the NOW lead by their 1979 founders David Chesworth and Robert Goodge.
More than four decades since first disbanding, Essendon Airport’s 21st century incarnation features original collaborators David and Robert plus, early 80s bandmates Paul Fletcher (percussion) and Barbara Hogarth (bass), plus pedal steel guitarist Graham Lee (The Triffids, KLF).
For new album MOR, this quintet re-engage with their early minimalist work, revisiting songs from the Sonic Investigations era in expanded full band arrangements. They also offer up one newly composed track, the delicately inquisitive Malibu. The result is a lush, elegant update of these beautifully hypnotic and meditative compositions, full of atmosphere and melody, but still imbued with the band’s trademark off-kilter sense of experimentation and wonder.
Come down at 6pm SHARP! and cut some shapes and remember all instores are ALL AGES and FREE and there will be a prize for the best dancer.
This event will take place on the lands of the Wurrundjeri People of the Kulin Nation. We pay respects to elders past, present and emerging. Sovereignty was never seeded.
