Michael Plater & Friends Dean Richards, Black Earth

"Beautiful and timeless...Music that breaks your heart,” Peek-a-Boo, Belgium

U.K/Australian indie/folk/experimental musician Michael Plater returns to the Coolroom, as part of Elements 4. He will be playing alongside local legend Dean Richards and the experimental electronica supergroup Black Earth - featuring Dean, David Thrussell (Snog, Black), and Morgan Coole (An Unrich Museum). 

Michael recently returned from five years living in the U.K., where his most-recent album, 2023’s “Ghost Music,” was highly acclaimed, and was voted the 4th best album of the year in U.K. music publication Sun 13. He will be joined on the night by a range of local luminaries for what promises to be an evening of experimental, psychedelic, folk, and art rock sounds.

“Raw unearthly power…bloody magnificent,” I-94 Bar, Australia
“These songs are too tender to burn the heart: they melt it instead...that’s how great storytellers sink their hooks in, and Plater is most certainly that," Sun 13, U.K
“Fantastic cinema for your inner ears,” MangoWave, Germany
“You don’t just lose yourself in the arrangements of the instruments, but also in the voice,” Gezeitenstrom, Germany
"One of the most absorbing and arresting players around" B-Side Magazine, Australia.

7.30pm, Friday 19th April
Tickets $22, $18 conc
