I could easily imagine the excitement of the lucky few who got to see Bowie in similar intimate venues.” \n“When you opened with Sound and Vision\, I knew we were in for a good night. I was right. Thank you to everyone involved for a show full of passion and respect.” \n“It was an amazing set – thank you. Fantastic performance by everyone in the band.” \n“You guys were absolutely drilled.

SUMMARY:Large Mirage
DESCRIPTION:LARGE MIRAGE are a young Australian rock band with their boots planted firmly in the golden soil of 1970s hard rock but with their eyes fixed on the future. Formed in 2021 by lead vocalist and guitarist Kolya Chan\, LARGE MIRAGE has quickly built a reputation for high-voltage live shows and a sound that pairs heavy rock bravado with psychedelic-pop melodies. Think flared jeans\, stacked amps\, fuzzed out guitars and songs meant to be played loud but warmed up with undeniable ear-candy hooks\, rich three-part vocal harmonies and sophisticated songcraft. \nKolya is the band’s central songwriter\, writing compositions that balance introspective storytelling with searing guitar work. Blake Rochester’s driving bass\, AJ Stanton’s textured keyboards\, and Bailey Brown’s dynamic drumming round out a sound that nods to all rock’s greats but without living in their shadow. Despite their relative youth\, LARGE MIRAGE have logged serious miles. They’ve sold out headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne and shared bills with artists such as The Screaming Jets\, Amyl & The Sniffers\, and the Australian Rock Collective. Their versatility has seen them move seamlessly from intimate venues to major festival stages\, appearing  at events as varied as Woodford Folk Festival\, Lost Paradise\, Party In The Paddock\, and King Street Summer Crawl. The band’s rising reputation as a powerful\, flamboyant\, and charismatic live act earned them the opportunity to support AC/DC at two sold-out stadium shows in Sydney\, the hometown of both bands. \nLARGE MIRAGE have released two EPs to date\, A Side to Blame (2023) and Wings of Time (2025). The band produces their own recordings\, which aim to capture the energy of their live shows. Real music delivered by real musicians who’d rather play rock than talk about it. LARGE MIRAGE has picked up airplay on Triple M\, Rebel FM QLD\, ABC Radio\, and ABC’s long-running Rage\, giving their songs a life beyond the local circuit. Their latest single\, ‘Miss Okay’\, finds the band mixing mid-’60s Motown energy with suave ’70s psych-pop punch. \nLARGE MIRAGE stand at the front of Australia’s new wave of rock. A band unafraid of big riffs\, big melodies\, and throwback fashion. It’s rock music with a past it respects\, a present it’s conquering\, and a future it’s kicking open\, one flared step at a time. \nReviews \n“Large Mirage kick off the evening with bone-rattling riffs. It’s clear why AC/DC chose them as a support.” – Grace Stokes (Scenestr) on Large Mirage supporting AC/DC \n“The room holds its collective breath\, as if we’ve all been transported back in time… Large Mirage isn’t just reviving classic rock; they’re reinventing it with fresh fire. I’malr eady hanging for more…” – Clea-Marie Thorne (Scenestr) on Large Mirage at the Princess Theatre \n“This young dynamic quartet have got a certain magic about them…This is modern retro rock done authentically and with so much heart and soul. Unlike others who have attempted to buy into cloning a style or sound\, Large Mirage are the real deal…” – Andrew Slaidins(The Rockpit) on Large Mirage at the Forum Melbourne \n“There’s something that gives a band a bit extra … a mystique.” – Clinton Walker (author – Highway to Hell) on Large Mirage \n“… a group that brought me back to a time I wasn’t born in – they combine the best of the 60s and 70s\, like The Who mixed with Lynyrd Skynyrd. Looking forward to what’s in store\nfor Large Mirage\, fingers crossed they’ll be a prolonged band of the resistance” – Cameron Menegoni (2SER FM) \n“… the track sizzles with retro crunch and sonic punch (with a) hard-hitting rock edge…” – Corin Shearston (The Sydney Sentinel) on ‘Going Insane’ \n

DESCRIPTION:SHOW POSTPONED – NEW DATE TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON.\nTicket holders will be notified by the event organiser. For all enquiries please contact the organiser via the TRYBOOKING  link: https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1554047 \n  \nJONES… He’s Cool ~ He’s Smooth ~ He’s one of Australia’s premier exponents of Jazz in a unique Hip style! \nThe Baroque Room looks forward to welcoming musician VINCE JONES on Saturday May 30th\, Celebrating 50 Years of Music\, the Maverick artist returns to Katoomba after two magical performances at last year’s Blue Mountains Music Festival. \n  \nMulti ARIA-Awarded VINCE JONES acclaimed vocalist\, trumpeter and songwriter is one of the most beloved iconic voices in Australian music. Celebrating 50 Years of Music\, Vince needs no introduction to any music-lover\, celebrated for the Beauty of His signature Voice\, there is no one like Vince Jones In Concert or in-person\, the man has a quiet charisma that has you spellbound!  He has to be the world’s most laid-back singer\, relaxed\, cool and unhurried\, confident in his own musical style\, he sings like there’s nothing to prove; His mellifluous tone filling the lyrics with his obvious joy of the music. \n  \n“Jones’ effortless sublime voice and command of his beloved trumpet will have you swooning under his captivating spell.” – The Australian \nNicknamed-Australia’s National Treasure\, for over 5 decades Vince has carved out a singular space in the Australian musical landscape\, blending cool jazz\, soul and sophisticated song writing with a lyrical honesty that speaks straight to the heart. From his breakthrough in the early 80s\, to creating the highest-selling Oz Jazz album to date ‘Come in Spinner’ (from the ABC TV Series) to His enduring presence on festival stages and concert halls here and overseas\, Jones has remained true to an artistic vision that’s as politically conscious as it is musically rich. Recognised as one of the country’s most influential Jazz artists captivating audiences with his deeply expressive vocals and spirited trumpet playing\, He doesn’t just interpret songs he inhabits them!   \n  \nWith 25 albums to boot\, a new offering due out in winter\, a repertoire including beloved originals such as ~ * ‘Trustworthy Little Sweethearts’  * ‘Nature of Power’ * ‘Rainbow Cake’\, he continues to inspire generations of musicians and listeners alike.  \nHis Spirit and Voice just as vibrant as the first day he hit the stage.  \n  \n  \n“A soulful voice without any pretensions; a musician who sings from his heart\, and a repertoire that expresses the human condition.  He is a Maverick and a Troubadour.”  –  NME UK \n  \nAs a man who thinks deeply about the state of the world\, his passion for social consciousness shines through in his lyrics and life.  Never shy about advocating for and sharing his views on the human condition\, world affairs and our environment\, His thought provoking astute observations have you walking away inspired … you take home something to think about!   \n“I watch people’s faces; and sometimes it looks like strange things are happening in their souls when they listen.” – VJ \nBorn in Glasgow\, Vince and family came to live in Australia at 11 years old. Growing up in Wollongong NSW\, listening to his Horn-playing father and singing Mothers’ collection of great jazz albums\, the feel\, style and essence of the music became a natural part of Vince’s world. Starting his journey at 20 as a bebop trumpeter playing the club circuit in Melbourne in the late 70’s and early 80’s\, the young man had no idea that in just a few years his superb voice would touch the hearts and minds of so many. Drawn to R&B music-a genre in which the emotive force of the voice is matched by technical and improvising skills\, to a young guy steeped in creativity and blessed with a sweet golden voice – it was natural to meld these together – so began the evolution of one of Australia’s great vocalists. \nAccompanied by His World Class group – featuring Matt McMahon on Piano * James Hauptmann – Drums * John Mackey – Tenor Sax * and welcoming Phill Stack on Double Bass (Thirsty Merc) \nPrepare to Swoon… \n  \n“A magical performance by Vince Jones\, who now has one of the Best in a long line of exceptional bands.” – SMH \nhttps://thecarrington.com.au/wp-content/uploads/Footage-30sec-Budgie-live-Vince-Jones-1.mp4\n  \n  \nhttps://thecarrington.com.au/wp-content/uploads/Footage-Rainbow-Cake-vince-jones-promo-snippet-1.mp4

The Finnish composer\, Jean Sibelius said “Music begins where the possibilities of language end.” \nBach and the Bard is an hour-long concert that blurs the lines of expression between words and music. It connects the words of Shakespeare to music by J.S. Bach\, Pablo Casals\, Michael Praetorius and Paradis. Presented by cellist Rachel Scott\, brilliant percussionist Ben Sibson and actors from Sport for Jove\, you will be taken on a journey for the hour you’ll be in the performance space. Expect dances of all kinds\, featuring hand-drums from around the world\, and moments of magic featuring the heavenly sounds of the vibraphone – all linked to the incredible words penned by William Shakespeare.This promises to be an hour that will stay with you long after the performers leave the stage. \nPlease note: This venue is restricted to 18+ only

SUMMARY:The Women’s Room
DESCRIPTION:After three sellout seasons at the Canberra Comedy Festival\, two at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and nominated as Best in Comedy at the Sydney Fringe\, comedians Trish Hurley\, Tanya Losanno and Jacqui Richards are ready for anything. Hurley and Richards (both Raw Comedy National Grand Finalists) and Tanya Losanno (2x Moosehead recipient) have just completed their third joint show – The Women’s Room Underestimated. \nHurley\, an ex-nurse and avowed hypochondriac\, is living proof that you can be both. In between diagnosing her neighbours with imagined illnesses\, she’s managed to land a new job – she’s the personality hire. And she’s just come back from travelling the world with her reluctant uni student son and a husband hell bent on getting the best deal ever. Richards\, an ex-therapist who belatedly realised she is not a people person\, has gone from trying to convince people she’s Australia’s most popular widow to dodging match makers and public servants. She’s developing a social conscience whilst wondering whether her kids have actually ever told her the truth about anything. \nLosanno\, a marriage celebrant and pre-school teacher\, is caught in the sandwich generation. Between marrying people\, she’s stressing that perfect daughter duties don’t have an end date when you have immigrant parents. In the jumpsuit stage of her life .she’s trying to balance her hormones and her teenagers. Together they are making Australia laugh about things that affect all women of a certain age in a certain stage and in the process they have won a legion of new comedy fans. \nThe Women’s Room – for women and the people who love them.

SUMMARY:The Maes in Concert
DESCRIPTION:We’re thrilled to welcome The Maes back to the Blue Mountains as part of their biggest-ever Australian headline tour\, celebrating the release of their brand-new album Abreast. \nSisters Maggie and Elsie Rigby will fill the Baroque Room with their luminous harmonies\, warm storytelling\, and acoustic brilliance on guitar\, banjo\, fiddle and mandolin.\nDon’t miss this special night in a dedicated “listening space” setting. It’s folk\, but with heart\, humour and harmonies that stay with you. \nThe Maes are celebrating the release of their fourth studio album\, ‘Abreast’\, with a national headline tour encompassing their favourite cities and small towns in Victoria\, Queensland\, New South Wales and South Australia! Already in 2025 so far they have toured the UK opening for Grace Petrie and played the Shetland and Orkney Folk Festivals. They celebrated the album’s release day with a sold-out folk-festival-style event\, ‘Abreastival’ in their home town of Castlemaine\, Central Victoria. The band’s previous albums\, 2019’s self-titled record and 2017’s Take Care\, Take Cover won the Music Victoria\, Folk/Roots Album of the Year among a host of other accolades. \nThe Maes bring modern folk to life with lush harmonies and acoustic mastery on guitar\, mandolin\, fiddle and banjo.

The Maes are outstanding live\, with engaging storytelling and spine-tingling harmonies. The sisters draw their audience in like your sweetest and scariest friend. With echoes of Gillian Welch and The Waifs\, there is a timeless luminescence and simplicity to the songwriting and sound of Maggie and Elsie Rigby. \nAs well as selling out headline shows around the country and overseas\, their international festival appearances include the Telluride Bluegrass Festival (USA) Edmonton Folk Festival (Canada) Orkney Folk Festival (UK) and Woodford Folk Festival (Aus). \n‘The Maes folk/pop sensibility is alluring.
