Cheersquad Records & Tapes Residency | Checkerboard Lounge + Sime Nugent & The Capes + Roller One (Northcote SC 20th Birthday)
NSC is turning 20 and we’re throwing one helluva party!
To celebrate two decades, we’re rolling out 20 Gigs for 20 Years — a huge birthday series running through July and August, stacked with some of our all-time favourites.
As part of the birthday blowout, Cheersquad Records & Tapes is taking over Wednesday nights from July 2 to August 27 with an eight-week residency stacked with familiar faces, label favourites and local legends. CRT Wednesdays tips the hat to the artists, crews and crowds that have helped shape both Cheersquad and NSC over the years.
Grab tickets to individual shows, or snag a season pass and catch every single one. Check out the stellar lineup —
Checkerboard Lounge have been a staple on the Melbourne blues scene for over 3 decades now with many a release under their belt, two of which Cheersquad have had the pleasure to release – Sun Sessions and Rollercoaster – with more in the pipeline.
Sime Nugent is no stranger to the NSC but is only a recent signing to the Cheersquad family, although we’ve been fans of his for a very long time. Sime Nugent & the Capes single The Crow being the sole CRT release so far but much more on the horizon.
Another newcomer to the Cheersquad stable but not a newcomer to the local scene is fabulous quartet Roller One who’s new single So Far is set for release on July 3.
Come raise a glass and help us celebrate 20 years of great gigs and good yarns at NSC — we wouldn’t want to do it without you!
Our show is being held on the lands of the Wurundjeri People and we wish to acknowledge them as the Traditional Owners of this land we are gathered on. We also pay our respects to their Elders, past and present, and Aboriginal Elders of other communities that may join us for our show.
