Carla Lippis is a live grenade with lungs, and she’s ready to unleash her new sound at The Gov with her first full length album, MONDO PSYCHO: an avant garde descent into rock 'n' roll purgatory helmed by ‘the Satanic Liza Minelli’, whose relentless vocal power grinds audiences everywhere into a state of submission. With nods to Iggy’s Raw Power days, the riot girl howl of the 90’s, the chaotic post-punk of The Birthday Party and the insolence of X-Ray Spex’s Poly Styrene, Carla's dominating presence is both feared and revered.
Backed by Adelaide's most dextrous musicians: ‘Shaolin Afronauts’ afro-futurist band leader Ross McHenry on bass and Matriach Moog; celebrated film sound designer Duncan Campbell on synths; sound effects and piano; Glaswegian-born avant noise specialist, Geoffrey Crowther on guitar; NYC-based Angus Mason on drums; and the aptly named Django Rowe on second guitar.
The show is a live phantasmagoria where Carla sets out to evolve beyond the horizon of hardcore, to a place where she could unleash her furious manifesto.
Carla has performed with the likes of Calexico, Tom Waits guitarist, Marc Ribot and She & Him’s M. Ward.
Special Guests Rocky's Pride and Joy weave together filthy chunks of doom with tales of revenge, foreboding omens and forces driven by blood, lust and madness. Gone are the 15-minute epics, they've been replaced with concise slabs of heavy hitting grooves and lyrics so dark they satisfy Satan herself.
Special Guests The St. Morris Sinners. Together, Stephen Johnson (vocals), Django Rowe (guitar) and Angus Mason (drums) have woven punk, jazz, and avant-garde influences into their own style of dirty alternative rock. The band attract audiences to their live shows with their distinctive sound and raucous energy.
“Rollicking, rambunctious ride across blues-infused rock that also treads a path via erratic art rock and eccentric, cinematic noodlings.” - Scenestr
