When:
Wed Oct 15 to Fri Oct 17, doors 7.30pm
How much:
$25 to $110.50 from here
Description:
When two of New York's most important artists get together on a musical collaboration, the world (and Melbourne) takes note. Even if it is the unlikely coupling of 'most-pretentious runner up' award-winner Philip Glass (he lost to Lamont Young) and Canadian folk legend, Leonard Cohen.

Description:
Melbourne's much-loved Pikelet (aka Evelyn Morris) is pretty famous. She has been in street pics twice over the past year and aside from that is now recognised as one of our country's best folk-psyche multi-instrumentalists. This time around Ms Morris takes to the stage of the hallowed Spiegeltent for an uninterrupted one-hour set.

Gloria Deluxe
Where:
Beck's Bar at the Meat Market, 5 Blackwood St, North Melbourne
When:
Fri Oct 17 and Sat Oct 18, doors 9pm
How much:
$33.75 / $45, group (8+) $40.50 from here
Description:
Cynthia Hopkins is one of those high-flying juggernauts that have given MIAF a good rep. She has an encyclopaedic CV of artistic achievements and enough trophies to fill a house. One trophy in particular came from The Alpert Award in the Arts for the cream of the artsy crop. Her band, Gloria Deluxe, sounds like enliquored Fiona Apple singing over the cigarette hanging from her bottom lip.
