The Necks
PRESENTED BY FED SQUARE
Two unique sets over one evening – music and the sublime will meet when Internationally acclaimed and genre-defying Australian trio The Necks take to the Main Stage, in this free live concert as part of Open Air at the Square.
Bring a picnic blanket and invite another music-lover to share in this singular experience as the sun goes down on a warm, Melbourne summer night – an experience referred to by critics as ‘a kind of religious experience’ (The Australian) and ‘collective meditations, executed with a Zen-life discipline’ (The Age).
Hailed by the New York Times as ‘one of the greatest bands in the world‘, The Necks have well earned their cult following.
Celebrating their 40th year together and the release of their new album SURF, Chris Abrahams (piano) Tony Buck (drums) and Lloyd Swanton (bass) have conjured a chemistry together that defies description.
Revered internationally for their improvisational prowess and hypnotic live performances, each performance is a spontaneous creation – every show a completely new experience.
Be entranced, enhanced and enter the great expanse – with The Necks, this Open Air.
This event is presented as part of Open Air at the Square.
