Monstress

8:30PM
soul, funk, Neo-Soul
(Sydney, nsw)
Improvised solos, riff-heavy grooves, melodic hooks, & spoken word

Viewer beware: They say to look a Monstress in the eye will make you blind and then give you sight. Emerging from a dazzling sold out EP launch and more recent single tour, Monstress have been bringing a taste for lust across Australia’s East Coast from Canberra to Newcastle, and they’re taking no hostages. If you do ever find yourself in the lucky position of watching the vibrant, all female quartet take to the stage you may leave with a new definition of desire, as the divine Sarah Homeh sings with the vocal edge of Billie Holiday meets Beyonce. With sultry lullabies and silky alibis this part-jazz-part-spoken-word-part-liquid-honey-dripping-soul-moving-RnB dreamscape will make you dance with a groove that seeps out from the deepest crevices of your bones. Call all of your witches and ghouls, Monstress is coming, and yes they bite.
