Sunday Afternoons in July – Ali Bird and Aarght Records
Sunday sleep-ins should always be chased with record fairs and live gigs.
Overview
As part of the City of Yarra’s annual Leaps and Bounds music festival, Ali Bird and Richard Stanley of Aarght Records are making Sundays a little more tune-filled for everyone. Kicking off at midday for three Sundays in July, a solid lineup of bands, top notch vinyl record market and smorgasbord of treats await to round off your weekend .
Let’s be honest, cheap Bloody Marys, Uncle Dougie’s BBQ and vegan cupcakes from Sweetie Pie & Cuddle Cakes is just what the doctor ordered for a Sunday recovery session. We have to admit, Copacabana on Smith St is an unexpected venue choice, but the daggy and unpretentious 'so bad it’s good' vibe might just be the ticket.
Musical goodness to look forward to includes Dick Diver, Scott and Charlene’s Wedding, The Galaxy Folk, Total Giovanni and Misty Nights DJs on July 13. Then it's Harmony, Bitch Prefect and Empat Lima on July 20. The Independent Record Fair, which will also be held on July 13, will see local labels such as Two Bright Lakes, Mistletone, It Records, Bedroom Suck and Chapter Music selling records from their own artist catalogues. Sounds like a pretty good way to spend a chilly winter Sunday to us.
