Carl Cox & Eric Powell (UK)

The internationally renowned disco & house music veterans are set to go back-to-back for a showstopping eight-hour set. Digging deep into their extensive record collections, they’ll showcase the best of Funk, Soul, Disco & House music classics that they were brought up with, and that have influenced them through the decades.

Carl and Eric have made their mark as two of the most sought-after DJs in the world, each delighting dancefloors around the world with an illustrious career in dance and electronic music spanning over 40 years.

Carl & Eric started their now ‘must attend ‘Carl & Eric’s Mobile Disco’ show in Stillwater - Dromana (Victoria), Australia in 2010 as a small get together with 150 of their closest friends. It was a fun & casual day, with the guys spinning their all-time favourite rare cuts and classics tunes which shaped their musical journeys. From Soul, Reggae, Hip Hop, Disco, House, Jazz, Jazz-Funk and whatever they felt like playing on the day. Carl has even been known to throw down Cliff Richards’ ‘Summer Holiday’ amongst many other hidden / classic gems!

Fast forward 10 years and their ‘MOBILE DISCO’ has become a global institution, playing to sold out shows at some of the world’s most picturesque locations including Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Queenstown, New York and Bali.

After an enforced “COVID” break the lads are excited to announce that on Sunday 2nd May 2021, they will be doing their first ever show together in Darwin at the George Brown Darwin Botanic Gardens in the Northern Territory capital.

It was way back in 2006 since Carl was last in Darwin when he ripped the roof off a packed house at Discovery Nightclub & Eric will be discovering the tropic beauty of the Northern Territory for the first time.

This is going to be one very special show that you don’t want to miss!

Carl & Eric explain: “Why did we call it ‘Mobile Disco?’ it was going to be a one-off party for friends and family. We also thought a ‘Mobile Disco’ was the last thing people would expect us to do. Now more than ten years later, we have been fortunate enough to set up ‘Mobile Disco’ in some fantastic, picturesque locations around the world, playing the music that has influenced us since we were kids.”
