THE FANCY BROTHERS
Flamboyant fools, The Fancy Brothers, play half-arsed renditions of dubious bluegrass tunes to make you feel good when you deserve much less. These WAMI Award winning bastards of boograss will serenade you with songs of death, the difficulties of manliness, womanhood and trains. Fronted by two of Fremantle's fanciest songwriters, Jeff Strong (banjo) and Justin Walshe (mandolin), and bound and gagged by a crackpot family string band starring Phoebe Corke on fiddle, Justin Castley on double bass and Merle Fyshwick on guitar, The Fancy Brothers tell you you how it is when no one else will, and they'll make you dance like a hillbilly.This particular show is an album launch so not to be missed.$10 on the door.

THE GYPSIE HOWLS
In 2011 The Gypsie Howls came full circle when the sextet played a ripping, rocking set to a massive moshing crowd at the Fairbridge festival. Years earlier, Kirsty (vocals, keys) met Ben (vocals,guitar) at Fairbridge, and after a couple of chance encounters the two bonded over their shared musical interest, writing some songs and playing around Perth as The KirBens. Before too long, The KirBens picked up four other members, transforming the duo into a dynamic sextet playing powerful bluesy/rocky/folky/jazzy numbers, combining Kirsty's massive pipes and virtuosic piano talent with Ben's rock chops, topped off with a super tight two piece horn section. The KirBens quickly became dancefloor faves, playing the Next Big Thing semis in 2010 and the National Campus Bands State Finals in both 2009 and 2010 where they played "a ripping set, with singer Kirsty Hulka really belting out some sassy, fantastic vocals" (X-Press). Following a massive year of gigging, the band emerged with new songs and focus in 2011 as The Gypsie Howls, hitting the studio and playing their first festival dates to rave reviews at Nannup and an absolutely epic homecoming at Fairbridge.Free entry.

DEEP RIVER COLLECTIVE & THE FLOWER DRUMS
The Flower Drums formed in July 2011, from what was originally a bedroom recording project and the brainchild of ex-streetlight frontman Leigh Craft. The quartet have quickly shaped a distinctive sound that mixes traditional folk melodies with the dreamy ambient undertones of 60's pop music. Their debut EP 'Shadows Aren't Real' was recorded in Ferntree Gully, and intended as a musical gift for friends, but after word spread and the radio started playing it, it inevitably took on a life of it's own. Since "Shadows Aren't Real", The Flower Drums have been making a name for themselves in the Perth music scene whilst recording their upcoming EP.
After undergoing months of recording and leaving the name ‘Laced Affair’ behind, local psych-rockers The Deep River
Collective took to the stage at Amplifier last Friday evening to release their latest EP, Lost Control (Long Ago).Coming off a mix between the White Stripes’ bluesy insouciance and Oasis’ cockneyed swagger, the freewheeling vitality of local indie-rock quintet the Black Board Minds suitably warmed up the audience, filling the room with the monster riffs and unsubtle blues of an endearingly blue-collar band.
“A bewitching slab of psychedelia that draws from the band’s creative drive and solid songwriting.” – Drum Media
“Sonically dense and utterly propulsive, an outfit bound to be one of 2011′s most hyped about local bands.” – Xpress Magazine
“They have nailed the art of psychedelic, slow building waves of addictive melody. Deep River Collective are a very impressive live act and a hard act to follow.” – FasterLouder.com.au.$5 on the door.

CHET LEONARD’S BINGOTHEQUE - EVERY WEDNESDAY
Tell your sister! Chet Leonard, the bizarre alter ego of our beloved Tom Fisher, hosts a night of “This is not Bingo”. In fact you don’t even yell bingo, you yell whatever the hell Chet wants you to yell. Let Chet delight you with stories of his 19 illegitimate kids, his trailer that the bank wants back and why he may well need to sleep on your couch tonight. Chet is joined by his beautiful new assistant Bonny Digits who agrees to spin the balls and call the numbers. Why? We can only assume she is lacking in the senses of sight, hearing and especially smell! If you like a bit of Aussie swearing with your bingo, some great music, a good laugh, then come and play “not Bingo”.
