About this concert
Noiseworks and Electric Hippies’ founding member and producer, and Mi-Sex frontman – Steve Balbi – returns to the stage in 2024 to perform 3 exclusive and inherently intermate shows across Regional NSW in June – in Orange, Bathurst, and Newcastle.
THURSDAY JUNE 6: THE AGRESTIC GROCER ORANGE ft. TRAVIS NEW
FRIDAY 7 JUNE: LITTLE ALBERTS @ THE VICTORIA BATHURST ft. TRAVIS NEW
SATURDAY 8 JUNE: LIZOTTE’S NEWCASTLE ft. GRID [Colin Coorie & Tully Ryan]
Following Noiseworks sold out National and Red Hot Summer Tours earlier this year, Balbi has taken time in the studio to finish his fourth solo LP – Breakdown – which is due for release on limited edition 12” Vinyl and CD this August.
The new record reflects yet another stylistic departure for Balbi, which has propelled the creative chameleon upon an entirely new trajectory. Celestial but gritty, distorted but beautiful, and daunting but heavenly, Balbi bends genres on this new record. Transcending his profound pop sensibility with doses of sticky-dark-disco, it’s a sensual, impossibly romantic journey that’s evocative, inspirational, and intoxicating.
Exclusive to Lizotte’s Newcastle is the 3-piece incarnation of Balbi’s exquisite artistry – GRID. Featuring Balbi making noises and playing all the guitars, Colin Coorie (Richard Clapton) on the synth, piano, organ and keys, and Tully Ryan on a live-looping launchpad, BVs, cymbals & snares, Balbi promises to deliver a taste of tunes from the new record, alongside an eclectic reimagination of his diverse catalogue of songs ‘n’ stories – from Noiseworks, Electric Hippies, Mi-Sex, Black Rainbow, I Think I Know For Sure, and more.
Balbi bespeaks Bowie and Lennon in melody and verse, exploring the heterogeneity, refinement, and dirty rotten groove of Radiohead. Be enlightened. Be inspired. And grab your tickets here: https://stevebalbi.com/tour-dates/
