HTRK

Overview

HTRK (Hate Rock Trio to the knowing) occupies a space in the mind not immediately apparent. Muted vocals mist through cold steel beats and oscillating synths in a slow seduction, swaying its hips in silhouette. Their sound slinks its way around the back of your neck and forces you to stare into its hardened darkness. Visceral, intoxicating and ultimately moving, Jonnine Standish and Nigel Yang create a stark, billowing world blinking with tragic romance.

Now the Melbourne-via-London duo makes their sojourn back to Australia in celebration of their latest album, Work (Work, Work) Expect their sombre tones to envelop you as sly glances are exchanged across the room - a night of opening itself to chance meetings, spontaneous moves and endless possibilities. They’ll be joined by the soulful glitch of Lost Animal, and guttural roving troubadour Kirin J. Callinan.
