Information - BTCP: Brown Spirits

Get ready for a trip to the outer limits of sound! Brighten The Corners is thrilled to bring the incredible Melbourne-based psych trio, Brown Spirits, to the intimate stage of The Smokehouse this May.

Described by MOJO Magazine as charting a path to the “outer limits of Krautrock, psych, and deep funk,” this is a rare opportunity to see a globally acclaimed band in the heart of Ipswich. Brown Spirits hold the impressive title of being the first-ever Australian act to sign with the legendary Soul Jazz Records, a testament to their unique and heavy sound.

What to Expect

From psyched-out Krautrock and free-jazz “wig outs” to deep, funk-flavoured jams, Brown Spirits are known for playing every show with incredible intensity. Their sound is a beautiful mix of 1960s and 70s inspired “kosmische musik” mixed with what fellow musicians Kikagaku Moyo call “warm Aussie sunshine.”

The trio maintains a strict DIY recording ethic, and they’ll be bringing tracks from their latest full-length release, Cosmic Seeds. Expect thunderous psychedelic excursions, moog-driven melodies, and those hypnotic motorik beats that are guaranteed to get you in the zone.

Event Information

Whether you’re a long-time fan of the Soul Jazz Records roster or you’re just looking for your new favourite live band, this is going to be a Tuesday night to remember.

You Don’t Need To Be An Expert To Get Involved In Pride in Place

One of the biggest misconceptions about community projects is that they're only for people with impressive CVs, professional backgrounds or years of experience sitting on committees. The Pride in Place programme - a government investment for Whitehouse and Stoke Park/Chantry of £20m into each area over 10 years - is trying to change that.
