Initially classed as a turntablist, Lucas Abela’s work has rarely resembled anything in the field. Early feats saw him stab vinyl with Kruger-style stylus gloves, bound on electro acoustic trampolines, drag race the pope across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, perform duet duels with amplified samurai swords, and hospitalised by high powered turntables constructed from sewing machine motors. Today he focuses on his infamous glass instrument; these huge shards are actually a giant diamond-tipped stylus you vibrate with your mouth. He has been perfecting the instrument since it’s invention in 2003, performing internationally. This show also features performances by Hurricane Grind, Kappa, Shayne Bowden and DJ Speedfarmer.
