On Diamond: Hold the Cloak of Time

This event is taking place on land rightfully belonging to the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to elders past and present whose sovereignty has never been ceded, and to all first nations peoples.

On Sunday 3rd July, On Diamond will perform a new set of songs offering a poetic commentary on relationship/s to self, others, our surroundings, and an internal concept of time. The songs will be presented alongside sensory cues to further express the ideas central to this material.

Featuring Lisa Salvo (voice, composition), Scott McConnachie (guitar, synth), Myka Wallace (drums), Jules Pascoe (bass), Genevieve Fry (harp, voice) Merinda Dias-Jayasinha (voice) and Tina Stefanou (voice).

Traversing a multitude of genres, Naarm/Melbourne-based quintet On Diamond take an anomalous look at alternative pop. Their sound relies on an interactive group dynamic, and is inspired by folk, noise, rock, pop, jazz and improvised music.

On Diamond’s output has seen the band attract critical acclaim. Their 2019 self-titled debut album (Eastmint Records) was nominated for The Australian Music Prize and Music Victoria Awards’ Best Album, as well as receiving Album Of The Week on 4ZZZ, Triple R and PBS, and being included in PBS’ Top Ten Albums of 2019.
