Description:
Bobby Byrd once exclaimed that he knew you had soul. This statement obviously was not aimed at the majority of Brisbane, but elitism aside, thanks to Footstomp Music our city gets the chance to reclaim some motown spirit during the second Respect event.
Playing a range of soulful numbers throughout the night, ranging from general soul, funk, rhythm and blues, motown classics and rock ‘n roll, last event's sell-out status is sure to repeat itself, so swing by the Troubadour this Friday to get on up to the passionate sounds of a bygone era.

This Baltimore duo creates tunes that swell with beautiful musicianship and ebb with warmth, leaving you to drift away on a tide of intricate melody.

Devotion, Beach House
Baltimore girlfriend/boyfriend duo Beach House have achieved an increasingly difficult feat; they've created a sound that is both instantly recognisable yet entirely new. Like a new buddy at a party you feellike you've known for years. Their second album, Devotion, combines the atmosphere of David Lynch's creepy small town Americana with the fifties girl groups on Quaaludes.
