Getting the night started is RICKY ROSEN, a 21 year old student working through a medical degree who just happens to have over half a million TikTok followers. In between classes Ricky has been quietly devoting his free time to working on his music and with Zoom University being the go to this past year he also found time to create a number of viral TikTok videos, kickstarting his music career. With the backing of his new found fans Ricky released his first single ‘Dim the Lights’ in December where he got to show off his hypnotic crooning skills.
JAGUAR JONZE crafts songs of melancholic beauty woven with gun slinging guitar lines and a strikingly rich, yet intimate voice. Born in Japan to a Taiwanese mother and Australian father, Jaguar Jonze is as eclectic as her cultural upbringing oozing influences by the likes of Portishead, The Last Shadow Puppets, Nick Cave and Angel Olsen. An enigmatic yet vulnerable songwriter, Jaguar Jonze delivers defiant ferocity through smoky vocals that shift between fragile and forceful and a mature musicality that provides sweetness through dissonance.
DZ DEATHRAYS are a band that started out playing house parties, and have ended up as one of the most recognisable and loved rock acts in modern Australian music. It’s not everyday that a band gets stronger and more popular with time, but that’s exactly what’s happened over the 10 years they’ve been thrashing out songs.The band has released three records, won two ARIA Awards, toured the world countless times, supported The Foo Fighters on stadium tours, they’ve even collaborated with a Wiggle, and now they’re set to stream live to your phone for ISOL-AID this Sunday.
Ending the night is TAKA PERRY the Australian-Japanese producer/songwriter making waves in the global music scene. With past collaborations including Ruel, Max Frost, GoldLink and Denzel Curry, Taka has made a name for himself just barely out of high school. In June 2020, he produced an official remix for the ARIA-platinum certified single Painkiller by Ruel featuring Denzel Curry and Pilerats dubbed him as “one of Australia’s most exciting [songwriters]”. His creative contributions have amassed over 130 million plays proving he’s one of the most exciting up and coming acts on the scene, and definitely not one to miss.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
