Description:
Fearless local label and touring force, Mistletone Records, continue their seasonal approach to kicking ass tomorrow night with Winter Tones - the latest instalment of Melbourne's only independent quarterly music festival. Upping the ante as only this label can, all three of Roxanne Parlour's rooms will play host to more than a dozen bands including dream pop vanguards Beach House (USA), New Zealand's synth pastoralist Bachelorette, local genius Qua, existential punks Love of Diagrams and ascend/transcend-ent acid-rock quintet of the moment, Beaches. A refreshing 'no headliner' policy ensures a high-contrast night of thrills - from lullaby folk to breakneck 8-bit to slacker rock and back again, a couple of times. - RL
