Melbourne Recital Centre: Lydia Lunch & Joseph Keckler – Tales of Lust & Madness

15 March @ 9:00 pm - 11:00 pm AEDT

Passionate, confrontational, and bold, Lydia Lunch is the ‘punk poet queen of extremities’ (The Independent). An American musician, poet, and writer since the 1970’s, Lydia has fronted her own bands such as Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, 8 Eyed Spy, and Shotgun Wedding, and has been the subject of her own life documentary, ‘The War is Never Over’. Having collaborated with luminaries Nick Cave, Henry Rollins, and Sonic Youth, Lydia’s unparalleled artistry cements her status as an ‘influential, groundbreaking, and seminal artist’ (Time Out). Whether attacking the patriarchy, turning the sexual into political or whispering a love song to the broken hearted, Lydia’s fierce energy and rapid-fire delivery lend testament to her warrior nature in this unforgettable set.
