When Modern Nature toured their last album, 2023’s No Fixed Point In Space, it became apparent to Jack Cooper – the band’s main creative force – that they were already pulling away from the free, open-ended approach they had spent five years working towards; almost as if the music had become so abstract and elasticated, it now had to snap back towards something more structured. As they found themselves naturally locking into more fixed grooves, he realised a new direction had been set. Their new album – The Heat Warps – is the triumphant manifestation of where that new direction took them.

Chet Faker first endeared himself to a devoted international following with a haunting cover of Blackstreet’s “No Diggity” that catapulted him into the spotlight in 2011. He followed that up with the much-lauded Lockjaw EP with Flume and his 2014 platinum-selling debut album Built On Glass, which cemented him as a world-class talent and earned him a slew of ARIA Awards. In the years since, he’s continued to build a critically acclaimed discography – including 2021’s full-length Hotel Surrender and multiple releases under his birth name, Nick Murphy – and has toured the world, playing sold-out headline shows and stages including Coachella, Lollapalooza, and countless more. New music from Chet Faker is imminent.
Michelle Gurevich’s brings her 7th bedroom produced album – It Was the Moment – to Jazz Cafe in October. It will not disappoint those anticipating a new soundtrack for their darkness and saudade. It may even be her most vulnerable and expressive work yet, with themes of a fatalistic submission to passion, the ephemeral nature of encounters, the loss of mother and home, the end of days, and losing one’s mind in both the best and worst ways possible. Michelle offers her entire palette of sound here, from dark Lynchian realism, to elegant humor, to queen of epic melodrama.
Dance while King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard evolve in real time – taking their extensive oeuvre through a complete transformation – swapping their no nonsense guitars and fuzz pedals for a bastardised fully modular synthesis table that shares the same beating heart of their ethos – ambitious, improvised and epiphanic.

SATURDAY 1 NOV 9pm (SOLD OUT).
SUNDAY 2 NOV 7pm – (SOLD OUT).
For Toronto outsider pop auteur Saya Gray, music is a glittering mosaic of endless influences.
Her body of work is akin to a sonic chimera; its limbs assembled from disparate, but complimentary musical organisms. Does she make pop? Folk? Rock? R&B? The moment you think you’ve got her pinned, she’s gone like a flash. “I’m constantly moving, physically and emotionally and spiritually” says Gray. “The influence of whatever’s around you will always seep in. [It’s why] I’ve been a vagabond for a very long time.”
Gray’s often collage-like sonicspheres, blanketed with layers of riffs upon layers of electronic chatter, demonstrate the limitless potential of music as an art form.
