Wed 12 Oct: Lucky Dragons supported by Geoffrey O’Connor @ The Toff. Tickets $25 from Moshtix 1300 438 849. Over 18s event only.

Electronic experimentalists of the most endearing order, Lucky Dragons’ live shows are the epitome of coming together – less performance, more all-in, collaborative jam session where the shape of the song is dictated by the audience as much as it is the band.

Incorporating a bewildering array of instruments, percussive elements and other music making devices for which no names yet exist, a Lucky Dragons gig is in essence an entirely new form of social music making, an improvised free-for-all where the barrier between artist and audience ceases to exist.

Frontman of local heroes Crayon Fields, Geoffrey O’Connor’s solo sound is a quiet, artfully distilled incarnation of that group’s brand of naive pop. Intimate and familiar, this is the music of old AM stations made by a man entirely captivated by the now.
