All-Ages Live Music Venue Catches West End Vibe

With music venues popping up all over inner-city Brisbane, there is seemingly one gap that remains to be filled – the all-ages music scene.

Outer Space Artist Run Initiative, an artist-run initiative, is filling that void as it presents Live From Outer Space. The music program is an all-ages live music event specifically tailored to the local West End community.

A special introductory run of Live From Outer Space is happening in January 2018. The events will feature local musicians that are sure to capture the vibe of Westenders.

From February 2018, Outer Space will host the all-ages live music event on the last Friday and Saturday of each month at its warehouse on Montague Road in West End.

Since it is an all-ages music event, Live From Outer Space is drug-free and alcohol-free.

Event Details

Dates: Last Friday and Saturday of the month starting February 2018
Time: 7:00 p.m. – 11:00 p.m.
Tickets: $10
Venue: 1/170 Montague Road, West End

January is extra special as there will be three live music events. This is as Outer Space makes the most of its empty warehouse, which is currently undergoing renovation.

The gallery’s first major exhibition is also still in the works, so it is the perfect time to launch the music program.

January Schedule:

Friday 12 January 2018 Spirit Bunny // Ultra Material // Slumlawwd
Saturday 20 January 2018 Rivermouth // Accomplice Collective // ARIG
Saturday 27 January 2018 The Delicates // Requin // Gooby Jim

Outer Space Expansion

Live From Outer Space is part of Outer Space’s expansion, thanks to ongoing support from the Brisbane City Council. The main focus of the non-for-profit gallery and studio is to educate and engage the community through the arts.

Aside from the all-ages music program, Outer Space is also expanding to include an affordable studio residency program, an annual exhibition and a community space dedicated to alternative education.
