Overview

The Carriageworks Unplugged + Uncomplicated sessions fill the last Saturday of every month with hours of free music. The venue already runs its own kitchen garden to stock the cafe, and for their second session of the year they're planting trees for your entertainment. Or entertaining you for the benefit of trees. As part of their ongoing mission to turn public entertainment into foliage, Music for Trees is putting on a full five hours of music. The event covers Carriageworks' cavernous foyer, letting you sit at the bar, eat at the cafe or simply dot  yourself among the equally cavernous beanbags spread around the vaulted concrete space.

Saturday's line-up features all-local artists, including the upbeat Liz Martin, guitar duo Tom Hespe and Rich Mason, Emad Younan, often harmonious Bhanglassi, James Brennan and the Brutal Poodles. If you like their sounds, you can donate something to Music for Trees, who'll change every dollar into funding for five seedlings in places where people can't afford to plant. So come to Everleigh and convert an afternoon of blissful sloth into a grove of beautiful saplings.
