Summer Sounds: Williamstown

From jazzy hip hop to big band beats — we're bringing live music to beautiful outdoor locations this summer. 

Pack a picnic or grab a bite to eat from local eateries, and make a date with family and friends to make the most of our parks and gardens throughout the warmer months. 

Plus — there’ll be loads of fun for kids of all ages at the Hoop Sparx circus playspace throughout the event. Drop in to learn some impressive tricks with spinning plates, juggling, hula hoops and more.

Saturday 24 February, 2pm – 5pm
Commonwealth Reserve, Williamstown

Featuring TEK TEK Ensemble + Yusupha Ngum and the Affia Band

 

TEK TEK Ensemble perform virtuosic and original music inspired by tropical jungles, late night discos, and 1960s chic.

They captivate audiences with exclamatory trumpet, hedonistic violins, organ, deeply pulsating drums and bass, wild psychedelic electric guitar and synthesizer, and a rich smearing of harmonized singing thrown on top. TEK TEK Ensemble formed in 2010 and have performed countless times around Australia and the world.

One of Gambia’s favourite sons, Yusupha Ngum, leads all-star line-up the Affia Band to deliver an afro odyssey of jazz, blues and funk fusion that leaves audiences elevated and captivated.

The sound is a melting pot of afro flavours peppered with traditional elements, jazz, funk and brought together beautifully with world class musicianship.
