Hot
on the heals of interstate launch shows for their debut studio album, Primitive
Calculators re-ignite their 'Little Bands' concept with a night
co-curated with Neumusak at The Old Bar in Fitzroy, on Thursday 20th February.
The
Little Bands scene originally ran over a couple of years circa 1978-81. The
edict being that a band forms for a one off show, performs 15 minutes of
'songs' and disappears. With such a crash and burn motos operandi, the scene was
a magnet for an incredibly high level of creativity, experimentation and fresh,
raw expression. It also spawned collaborations that would go on to become the
likes of Hunters & Collectors and Boom Crash Opera, as
well as cult ikons back in the day, Shower Scene From Psycho.
For
this event on Thursday 20th February, the likes of Harry Howard, members
of The Dacios and Puta Madre Brothers have each formed Little
Bands. There will also be a 'mystery headline' act to close out the evening!

An
unique night, created by a band that, after 35 years, has never decided to sit
still and press replay!
