Roused At! presents:

NEW YORK [USA/UK] @ Season Three

w/ local guest DJ SET [live]

--

NEW YORK is the NYC-based duo of Gretchen Lawrence and Coumba Samba. The pair make hypnotic, deconstructed “girl pop” that reflects the fractured, chronically-online world we live in. Their name, a challenge to search in the age of algorithms even on the best of days, mirrors the elusive, hard-to-categorise quality of their work.

Their sophomore album, rapstar* (Relaxin Records, 2024), established them as masters of ironic, thought-provoking electronica, with their latest EP, Push, being self-released in September 2025. Known for intimate live shows that blur the line between stage and audience—often performing in the middle of the room or seated on the floor—NEW YORK continues to create music that feels both purposefully performative and unexpectedly personal.

"Informed by synthpop and Detroit electro, here they twist both into a dissonant yet strangely intimate suite of 80s-inflected love songs. A Y2K flavour runs through the production too, evoking pre-millennium electronica without tipping into pastiche. Lawrence’s production is disciplined, often channelling the sleepy minimalism of Young Marble Giants while ensuring melodies land exactly where they need to." - Hayley Scott, The Quietus

DJ Set is the moniker of Meanjin/Brisbane underground mainstay Callum Galletly. Fully live, confounding, & explicitly fried electronic music skittering in and around all known boundaries of footwork/decon club/plunderphonic sensibilities.

Forged in the swamp of Pig City and informed by over a decade of activity in local underground noise, experimental and punk scenes as both a drummer and exploratory synth/gadget maven. Cheap gear, no fear.

Join us on Sunday, June 14th for what is, definitively, the least-SEO compatible live music event in Roused At! history.

no charge for First Nations punters or trans people of colour wishing to attend
