Melbourne-based artist Maxine Gillon has made a name for herself with her lush expansive songs that introject the energy and attitudes of the rich countercultural history of alternative music into a contemporary eclectic form, devoid of any genre constraints or limitations. Snappy beats, gutter intellectual lyricism, interlocking melodic layers & a complete dedication to the songwriting form.
Her third EP ‘Ultra Lounge’ was released in late 2022 to critical acclaim. Across six tracks, it straddles a balance between driving and catchy rock numbers and more introspective ballads, retaining the same lush and layered instrumentation throughout. It was mixed and mastered by Wade Keighran (ELVIS (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), Wolf & Cub). It also features guest vocals from Jonnine Standish (HTRK , Jonnine).
She is joined by Primitive Future on support.
This event is taking place on land belonging to the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. The organisers and artists wish to pay their respects to elders past, present and emerging and to recognise that sovereignty has never been ceded.
