Luna Live & Leicashow Presents...
The Stems
with Special Guests
Northcote Social Club (Northcote, VIC)
Wednesday, 23 April 2025 8:00 pm
THIS SHOW IS STRICTLY 18+
West Australian garage rock legends The Stems made a triumphant return to the live stage to celebrate their 40th anniversary in August and September of 2024 with a series sold out shows across Australia and Europe. The hugely successful tour meant that some fans missed out on tickets, so back by public demand, original members, Dom Mariani, Julian Matthews, and Dave Shaw and acclaimed guitarist Ashley Naylor (Even/Paul Kelly/The Church) are set to do again in late April with a run of selective shows across the east coast of Australia.
The Stems attained their own legendary status in the Australian and International music scene – roaring out of Perth with a sound and style that definitively captured the spirit and enthusiasm of sixties garage music - lurching fuzz-tone guitars, brooding organ, solid gold garage-punk, and primo power pop! The Stems not only created a distinctive sonic identity but also penned unforgettable songs while delivering electrifying live performances.
In the late '80s, The Stems achieved acclaim with a series of singles and EPs and the timeless 'At First Sight – Violet are Blue' LP in 1987. The group disbanded in late 1987 and made a significant comeback in 2003, playing to sold-out crowds nationwide. Since then, they have continued to tour regularly in front of audiences across Australia, Europe, Japan, and the United States.
Northcote Social Club strives to create a safe space that everyone can enjoy.
Crowd surfing & dangerous behaviour will result in removal from the venue.
