Adored band launch
Adored is Perth's Giuliano Formato's solo project, fusing airy indie with experimental electronic production. Recorded and produced himself, adored provides raw emotion and energy from the bedroom straight to the stage. His new single, "Bright Lights", is an honest exploration of love and devotion. Inspired by his girlfriend and the feeling of having someone in your life forever. With stuttering beats, rich textures, and intimate lyrics, adored continues to create a personal sound that strongly identifies with the community.
Rounding out the bill are CNTR, a Boorloo/Perth indie pop four-piece with an enormous sound live and a mod-vintage take on indie pop that is both new and old at the same time. With a WAM Award-winning single and a run of festival shows at Hyperfest and Scarborough Beach Party, CNTR provide just the right groove and feeling.
Siena Rebelo rounds out the bill, a 19-year-old talent blending indie pop and R&B/soul. Joining the ranks of Mahalia and Kali Uchis, and supporting live with Thelma Plum and Teenage Dads, Siena offers an interesting voice and appeal in live performance.
All these artists combined are creating their own way in Perth's music scene — pushing boundaries, crossing genres, and proving that there isn't just one sound for the next wave of West Australian music. This is a night for the people, celebrating uniqueness, creativity, and the new Perth sound.
