Open Air at the Yards is happening this Saturday, 25th March at Collingwood Yards in Melbourne/Naarm. The event headliners are LA musicians John Carroll Kirby and Eddie Chacon, as well as Oakland house and R&B producer Space Ghost. Chacon is one half of the classic pop duo Charles & Eddie, while Kirby has production and instrumental credits on albums by Solange Knowles, Miley Cyrus, Frank Ocean, Bat For Lashes, Harry Styles and Connan Mockasin.
The lineup also includes London DJ Shy One, an NTS Radio resident who helmed a stellar dancefloor set B2B with Ruby Savage at last week’s NTS in Naarm. There’ll be a live performance from Bristolian singer-songwriter Katy J Pearson and DJ sets from local favourites Mildlife, priya, Miss Doobie C and Wiradjuri woman Yawung.
