The BUgette is a fresh new venture from Brisbane Unplugged Gigs Inc, created to champion acoustic-style live music and further connect with acoutic music lovers and the younger Bohemian crowd in West End. We're all about growing Brisbane’s underground acoustic scene and creating a safe, vibrant space where creatives can connect, celebrate each other, and maybe even jump into a session or two.

THE FORMAT

The format for the evening is very similiar to The BUg (New Farm):

6.30pm - doors open (bar is actually open from 4pm)

7pm - up to 3 blackboard acts - 10 minutes max, 2 songs max. See the MC for a spot.

7.45pm - Georgie Neilsen

8.45pm - Echoes of Cirque

Hosts: Kristy and Elyse from The Salty Sirens

THE VENUE

The venue is The End Bar, 73 Vulture Street, West End - gig home of The Salty Sirens. They will also be the hosts generally for the evenings.

The End is a laid-back bar in West End, known for its craft beers and cocktails. Its industrial-chic vibe is softened by lush greenery, vintage leather couches, a layered timber bar, and quirky nods to its past life.

THE ACTS

Echoes of Cirque

Infused with the spirit of Django Reinhardt and the charm of 1930s Paris, Echoes of Cirque bring a modern twist to the traditional sounds of jazz manouche and blend infectious rhythms, virtuosic melodies, and soulful improvisation to create a mesmerising musical experience.

Georgie Neilsen

Brisbane/Meanjin singer-songwriter Georgie Neilsen delivers raw, theatrical songs that balance intimacy and power. From fronting her first band The Growing Pains as a teen to performing across Meanjin and Naarm, her cabaret roots and indie spirit combine in captivating storytelling and unforgettable stage presence.
