Red Bull Sound Select July

Overview

Red Bull's artist development program Sound Select is about uncovering and supporting the very best of local talent by pairing them up with established acts. The result is a monthly gig that's both emblematic of the sonic culture of our cities and pushes the boundaries of the music we know and love. This month's incarnation of the sonic celebration is curated by Laneway Festival's Travis Banko and is themed around 'kaleidoscopic soul', choosing artists who fuse the genre with R&B, hip hop, pop and electronica.

Taking over the newly resurrected Lansdowne Hotel on Friday, July 28, the gig will bring together three Sydney acts: Stones Throw signee Jonti, jazz hop duo Slum Sociable and Future Classic's Bus Vipers. As usual, entry is $3 with RSVP, or $10 on the door without.

Since launching in the States in 2012, Red Bull Sound Select spread to Canada and New Zealand before launching in Sydney in April last year. They hold monthly live gigs around the city to support upcoming artists and allow us to discover them.
