July 25, 2025

Have left today’s newsletter til way too late so let’s just dive straight in, while I ask for thoughts and prayers ahead of traversing deep into purple territory tomorrow to watch the derby.

Some very cool new music events have been announced this week, including a three day festival near Denmark in spring, and a reactivation of the Urban Orchard space in Northbridge by Perth International Jazz Festival. Plus find out which abandoned space PICA is taking over for Hatched, and where to find a very delicious-sounding beef bourguignon pie with a creamy potato topping…
