Declan O’Doherty

SAT NIGHT JAN 17 from 8pm VELCRO BULLY + ROY MOLLOY (DOUBLE BILL) 💙🎷🎸🎹🎸🥁 ⭐️ ROY MOLLOY is best known as the enigmatic, long standing business partner of Australian singer songwriter Alex Cameron. With this debut solo project, Molloy steps into a new artistic space. His music combines krautrock instrumentals, dry wit & heart wrought horn solos. Equal parts storytelling & mood-building, Molloy’s set represents a shift toward a more personal, expressive sound, marking a new chapter in his career as a performer & writer. ⭐️ VELCRO BULLY is the new dynamic collaboration of Stuart Melvey, Declan O’Doherty & Mislav Belobrajdic, delivering improvised electronic jazz & dance house with a unique setup combining analog synths, jazz drums, drum machines & guitar. Pulsing rhythmic frameworks evolve into expansive, hypnotic passages, while improvisation remains at the core, allowing each performance to unfold organically. Having played together under different aliases for over a decade VELCRO BULLY are seasoned performers with rare musical chemistry & an intuitive on-stage dialogue. Following a creative hiatus, they have reunited with renewed focus & welcome Mislav to the stage, refining a powerful live sound that is immersive, dynamic & emotionally charged - designed equally for late-night dancefloors & adventurous live audiences. Velcro Bully thrives in the space where rhythm, texture & instinct collide: groove-led, exploratory & unmistakably alive. ⭐️ STUART MELVEY (Synth/ Electronics) ⭐️ DECLAN O'DOHERTY (Drums) ⭐️ MISLAV BELODRAJDIC (Guitar) 🎫 LIMITED TIX! $17 Prebook/ $20 Door 🍻🥂🍷🥃🍸🍹🍾 Doors from 6pm .au/8CXXXQ
