About this concert
Willaris. K today shares ‘Drama On the Edge’, the final taste of what’s to come from the Naarm-based producer’s debut album Everything Is As It Should Be (out Friday 1 November). The long-awaited debut album marks a new phase for Willaris. K. Everything Is As It Should Be has the same thrumming, moody sensibility that earned him critical acclaim, running parallel to complex and hard-fought emotional peaks and troughs. ‘Drama On The Edge’ follows the recent release of the energetic ‘Guard’, emotive ‘I Miss You Now’, dance release ‘Backbackback’ and momentous collaboration with The Presets ‘World Collapsing’, which led to a euphoric jamesjamesjames remix. Willaris. K also recently released track ‘Say’ with Naarmnow-London producer Memphis LK and played Naarm's Abbotsford Covent, which sold out in just 48 hours.

Willaris. K Biography

Willaris. K is thrilled to share his debut EP Alchemy.

‘Risen’ is the fourth song to be taken off Willaris. K’s debut EP, a 7-track mini album that moves between thick industrial techno and sparse pensive melodic moments. The Alchemy EP features his previous singles - the debut single ‘Alchemy’ that saw Willaris. K break through with airplay on triple j, followed by ‘Dour Nights’ which was named by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong as his Essential New Tune - as well as four new tracks, which together explore themes of transience, movement, darkness and currents.

They all capture the period of time where McAllister went from being an electrical instrument technician working the state border substations by day and bedroom producer by night to a full-time musician, songwriter and producer. In that process, the piano-trained artist grappled with twisting old samples, or recording the bones of songs as iPhone voice memos and then building them out.

In 2017-18 McAllister played an unrivalled number of festival shows in Australia and NZ with over 25 live sets brimming with his trademark punk-influenced stage presence - all ahead of his international debut at Coachella this past April and debut sold out Australian headline tour. With his debut European festival appearance (Forbidden Fruit) and a landmark set at iconic Berlin club Watergate, the foot is firmly on the gas.
