WORKSHOP / MARTYR PRIVATES AT THE UNDERDOG 19 JUNE 2015



Besides a nice variety of bands this show stands out for being one of the last held at The Underdog (formerly The Step Inn , formerly The Shamrock) and will probably be the last time I go there until it opens up again under a new name in 3 years time.  It was also the last Brisbane performance by Workshop for quite awhile.  It was also my birthday but you don't give a shit about that.  The sound quality on these videos isn't great due to my close proximity to the PA but they're still almost listenable.

Workshop


Workshop have been a fascinating addition to the Brisbane music landscape since their inception in 2013.  Enigmatic electronic compositions of conceptual perfection.  Much efficiency.  This song is "Luxury" from last year's Luxury EP (Tenth Court).

Martyr Privates


Martyr Privates perform with a new somewhat one off lineup.  Backing up frontman Cameron Hawes was old drummer Sam Dixon on bass (filling in for new bassist Kate Mackenzie), Aiden Reid (Psy Ants, Knee Chin) on drums and Matthew Somers (Rick Fights, I Heart Hiroshima) on guitar.  Tight and to the fkn point.
