Australian Crawl alumni, legendary rockers, Norwegian hitmakers and British party legends are all stopping by Prince Bandroom this January.
The sun’s out, the nights are long, and St Kilda’s Prince Bandroom is calling your name. The southside pub-cum-entertainment haven should be your go-to hub of music this summer, and they’ve got a January of shows to prove it.
From legendary Aussie rockers in James Reyne and Rose Tattoo to international beat makers in D.O.D and Kream, there’s a little something for every kind of royal punter at the Prince this month.
Hot tip: get down early before a show and treat yourself to a meal in their public bar fit for a king. They’ve got cocktails and coffees and every kind of concoction of drink in between. Plus, their menu boasts some pretty tasty pub meals and classic feeds to line your stomach. If you’re feeling extra fancy, head next door to the Little Prince Wine bar and indulge in a nice glass of red before you rock out in their bandroom.

Prince Bandroom is getting a Norwegian takeover as DJ brothers Kream come to town. Known for their melodic tech house, the pair of music makers are going to be debuting their sound across three Australian cities – Naarm’s Prince Bandroom included. Hailing from the city of Bergen on Norway’s west coast, Kream were initially discovered through their remixes on SoundCloud before being signed with Atlantic Records in 2017.
Since then, the record producing duo have taken the world by storm. Off the back of their debut EP Reverie – released in 2022 – the brothers have been showing up on stages all across the globe. Australia’s next.

James Reyne is back at the Prince Bandroom again this January. Playing over two very special nights, you’ve got no reason to miss this master of music and owner of a Medal of the Order of Australia (for service to the performing arts). The lead singer of one of the country’s favourite bands – Australian Crawl – James Reyne is just as unstoppable of a force when it comes to his solo career. Punters at Prince will get a slice of both projects at this show, so come along expecting to sing along.
Having played at the Prince Bandroom for the last several Januarys, this show is becoming somewhat of a tradition. Bringing along his 8-piece band, word on the street is that this will be the last show with the big band for a while. Catch him while you’ve got the chance.

Currently fronted by iconic musician Angry Anderson, Rose Tattoo has been rocking and rolling since the mid ‘70s. A mix of hard rock with blues influences, these rockers are professionals when it comes to creating unforgettable tracks. Their live shows are beasts of their own, garnering a reputation for being loud and epic. Don’t miss what will be a legendary show this January.
