We’re back, baby.
Eight months since the curtain came down on our last live music event, Penny Drop is proud to be among a group of key Melbourne arts and cultural organisations enlisted to launch the Malthouse Outdoor Stage (MOS), a new COVID-safe venue bringing performance to the courtyard of The Malthouse this summer.
Penny Drop will present two performances a night across 10 nights, from some of our favourite local artists – many of whom will be sharing new music from recently (or soon-to-be) released projects – with eager audiences taking in shows in the courtyard’s new purpose-built amphitheatre.
MOS will open 21 January 2021 with performances from ARIA-winning jazz and soul prodigy Kaiit. From there, the Penny Drop presents Malthouse Outdoor Stage program will showcase the always enthusiastic and high-energy Gordon Koang, euphoric funk craftsmen Mildlife in back-to-back performances, the hypnotic sounds of HTRK, Sweet Whirl’s tender triumphs, a preview of Sarah Mary Chadwick’s upcoming record, a stripped-back set from Good Morning, the singular style of Emma Donovan & The Putbacks, an album launch for loveable DIY groovers Surprise Chef, and the bruising punk stylings of RVG.
Later on the MOS program you’ll discover stand-up sets courtesy of Token, discussions lead by The Wheeler Centre and The Saturday Paper, and workshops from Chunky Move and Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA). Additional programming partners include Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Midsumma, YIRRAMBOI and RISING.
It was a long winter in a tough year, and we couldn’t be more excited to kick off 2021 with a bang and celebrate summer with opportunities not just for the artists on stage, but for the behind the scenes music industry, whose unseen work truly makes Melbourne the live music capital of Australia.
Let’s get back to a gig. But first, you need to jump into your group-chat and jot down a shortlist, because each show is ticketed in groups of six.
Join us as we welcome live music back to Melbourne safely, finally.
Tickets on sale 10am, Monday 7 December 2020 (AEDT)

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.
