Fusion infused acid jazz, electronica, neo-soul and psychedelic jazz
PsyconFest takes over Lazybones Lounge for its 9th edition with an eclectic night of fusion infused acid jazz, electronica, neo-soul and psychedelic jazz. On the line-up four incredible acts: AstroVillain, EK & the Ekstraordinaires, Bike Thief and Yasmina Sadiki.
AstroVillain (Naarm/Mel) is a jazz-funk collective, formed by Daniel McKenzie (keys) and Conor Anderson-Vague (drums). Inspired by many different types of music, this 5-piece have blended their own brand of acid-jazz and funk-fusion. Combining elements of mystical ambience alongside a number of crunchy riffs and wildly creative rhythmic ideas, AstroVillain has curated their signature planetary sound that has grooves its way into the heart of Melbourne's underground future-jazz scene.
