The Princess Theatre, Brisbane

Queensland’s oldest-standing theatre, The Princess, is Brisbane’s newest home for live music and

The Princess Theatre reopened to the public in October 2021 as a sister venue to Brisbane icon, The Tivoli. The purchase and revitalisation of the 133-year-old theatre is helmed by The Tivoli owners, brothers Steve and Dave Sleswick. The thoughtfully restored State Heritage building is home to a state-of-the-art performance auditorium designed for a standing capacity of 950, and a seated theatre capacity of 500.

Known for pioneering the resurgence of British jazz, his upcoming tour will bring a broader musical scope that Australian audiences haven’t previously experienced. His new album, Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace, is set to showcase this evolution.

ANNOUNCEMENT 👑 Arman Garshasbi 👑

Arman Garshasbi embarked on his professional music career 14 years ago as the lead singer of the renowned band "Chaartaar." During his decade-long tenure with the band, he achieved extraordinary milestones in the Iranian music scene, performing over 150 concerts in Tehran and more than 200 shows across other cities in Iran and internationally. Notably, he toured Canada with Chaartaar three times, in 2016, 2019, and 2021, captivating audiences with their unique sound.

ANNOUNCEMENT 👑 Jersey.cr 👑

Two brothers, making dance music. It’s a winning combination. It doesn’t hurt that they’re French too.

Jersey​ are causing a scene. The brothers Carl and Renaud from Normanby started throwing secret parties in Parisian apartments to showcase their vibrant dance music. Their parties quickly went viral, and clips of the duo tweaking their home-made synthesizers popped up on TikTok feeds across Europe and the USA.

Inspired by the “French Touch” sound of their Parisian base, but also indie rock and drum & bass, they are not fixed to any one sound – you are just as likely to hear breakbeats, hardcore techno or even their bootleg edit of Fontaines D.C at their energetic live shows, which are played in-the-round for maximum impact. They have sold out shows across North America and Europe, causing a riot wherever they land.

ANNOUNCEMENT 👑 Durand Jones & The Indications 👑

Durand Jones & The Indications are equally beloved for their energetic, joyous shows, dual lead singers, and thoughtful songwriting. From an Indiana basement, where the band recorded their 2016 self-titled debut LP as university students, they’ve catapulted into the soul limelight and onto the international stage. Pushing beyond the boundaries of funk and soul on their previous releases, The Indications' third album, Private Space, unlocks the door to a wider range of sounds, boldly launching into a world of synthy modern soul and disco beats dotted with strings.

Anchored by a crate-digging sensibility and the high-low harmonies of Aaron Frazer and Durand Jones, Private Space showcases The Indications' mastery at melding revival sounds with a modern attitude. It’s an organic, timeless record that’s as fresh as clean kicks and as familiar as your favourite well-worn LP.
