Popular Music bring their intimate, expansive synth-pop to Eastmint. The Melbourne/Naarm-based duo of Zac Pennington (ex-Parenthetical Girls) and composer Prudence Rees-Lee draw from their latest album, Against Men, shimmering analogue electronics, glam-rock swagger and baroque ballads tangled in romance, betrayal and existential dread. Classic pop structures meet avant-garde ambition. Popular Music won’t save you. They will be joined by Robbie Divine + ensemble and Geoffrey O'Connor

Robbie Divine
Divine in name, divine in nature (wink), Robbie is at home amongst the theatre kids, the rock'n'rollers, and the garage geeks. Even the grown-ups adore him, moonstruck, recognising him as a rare simulacrum of an old world crooner, with cryptic stories to tell and a grave dryness in his eyes. A prized collaborator of writers, filmmakers, dancers and puppets. An Entertainer.
