With special guests, Chris Abrahams and Fabian Hevia.
The Vampires celebrate their 20-year anniversary, joining with two long-time collaborators: percussionist Fabian Hevia (featured on Chellowdene and Garfish) and pianist Chris Abrahams of The Necks, whose acclaimed collaboration on Nightjar won the 2023 ARIA Award for Best Jazz Album.
Since forming in 2005, The Vampires have carved a unique sound that blends hypnotic grooves, lush horn melodies and global influences into their unmistakable brand of “genre-hopping creativity” (The Guardian).
Short-listed for the Australian Music Prize, the band has built a reputation as one of Australia’s most distinctive creative forces. This milestone concert will trace their rich history while opening fresh terrain through the inventive voices of two of Australia’s most distinctive musicians.
