The Powerstation, Mt Eden Terrace
Not only is Alabama Shakes a band who've kicked soul music back into the future with an insane reputation for their live performances, they've also got a name that's inherently cool. The quartet is fronted by Brittany Howard, who at the ripe old age of 22 has already been noted for her throaty howls, and has been pinned as the next big thing. Critics everywhere have labelled their debut album Boys & Girls as one of the albums of 2012.

The Agony And Ecstasy Of Steve Jobs
Sun, 24 Jun, 2012
Maidment Theatre, Albert Park
One of the most controversial pieces of modern theatre is set to polarise audiences on June 24th at the Maidment Theatre. Mike Daisey pulls back the curtain veiling America’s most mysterious technology icon with a wickedly funny tale of pride, beauty, lust, and industrial design. Daisey illuminates the war taking us on a journey from China to Silicon Valley highlighting the human price we pay for our high-tech toys. This one-off performance of this notorious work brings together some of Silo’s illustrious veterans alongside some of New Zealand’s most beloved personalities. Oliver Driver, Jennifer Ward-Lealand, David Fane, Toni Potter, Nick D, Charlie McDermott and Simon Wilson all help to break up the monologue to perform this one-hander, subverting it in a style that has become synonymous with Silo.
