Artist

ROMAEO

Like all great art-pop auteurs, ROMÆO links her brand of pop with a larger concept – with every off kilter hook comes a deeper meaning. Idiosyncratic lyrics and experimental production have launched ROMÆO to the forefront of the Australian art-pop scene. ROMÆO’s performances blur the line between gig and performance art, incorporating elements of drag, dance, and theatrics. She has supported artists such as June Jones and Huck Hastings and worked behind the scenes with a diverse roster of collaborators, including Sandy Hsu, Adam Noviello, Dirty Versachi, and Will Edgar.

Monday 15 September, 7PM (Doors), Music: 7.30PM -10PM
