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.
New Zealand-born and Australia-based Skyscraper Stan and his longtime touring band and collaborators, the Commission Flats, have generated a body of work that has attracted a loyal, and more recently, global fanbase drawn to Stan’s easy lyrical style, inventive arrangements, and deft genre twists and turns— from folk and country to indie rock and consummate soul— all key elements across their diverse album ‘Those Were Days’. Stan and the gang will be heading to NZ & the UK not long after this show to tour said LP so you won’t catch them for a while after this one. Support comes from fine exponents of quirky punk pop Hobsons Bay Coast Guard whose next album Weather Report will be out on Cheersquad late September with the singles Earthquake and Monsoon already gracing the airwaves. The Cahill Kelly album Classical & Cool Jazz, (of which it is neither!), was one of Cheersquad’s earliest releases and has definitely stood the test of time and is still a wonderful listen. New music from Cahill Kelly very soon!
THIS SHOW IS STRICTLY 18+
Northcote Social Club strives to create a safe space that everyone can enjoy.
Crowd surfing & dangerous behaviour will result in removal from the venue.
