Tech-house pioneer Evil Eddie Richards returns to Glam this Grand Final Thursday.
Since the 1980s, Eddie has been a key figure in shaping Tech House into the sound we know and love today. With roots from the UK, where he earned the title ‘Godfather of Tech House, there’s no better home for his Grand Final Thursday headline set than right here – Melbourne’s underground house music club, Glamorama. Having played in some of the most iconic underground clubs across the UK like Clink St and Heaven, it’s about time we got another taste. With productions under his belt that innovated the genre and became chart toppers, no doubt this will be a night to remember and a rare opportunity to experience a true legend of house music. Eddie’s last show at Glamorama exactly 2 years ago was a sell out and still marks one of the biggest nights the club has ever seen.
The main room will also feature local legends Red & Richie, bringing a classic old school house sound infused with fresh yet modern energy.
Ruby Lou and Just Alice are supporting in the main room whilst Frosty & Bones, Jackson Wallas and Milla will keep the party going in the courtyard.
Get ready for a night that will go down in history. Grab tickets while you still can!

Event Details
Prepare to be simultaneously charmed and berated by Tīrau’s resident self proclaimed artist, incompetent anarchist, and lover of grapes.
Born in Limburg; Germany, Johann packed his quill and moved to the small town of Tīrau, (NZ) to free himself of his parental constraints and find himself as an artist. Now he is ready to share his angst with the world.
With a diary full of inspiration (and sheep poo), Johann has arrived in Naarm to launch (or attempt to launch) his first poetry book.
Unfortunately, as he presents his painfully curated manifesto, he will be sidetracked by his hatred of society, his love for Elton John, and his ongoing frustration with capitalism. Will we ever hear the full book? Do we want to?
Join award winning actor and writer Em Barrett as she presents to you her ultimate artistic alter ego. Based in Naarm, Em is an experienced clown, character actor, and performer with a background in theatre and drag. In 2022 she won the Tour Ready Award for her solo comedy Community in NZ Fringe where Johann originally appeared. Since then Johann has broken out into the comedy scene to share his internal angst and terrible poetry with the world. He has appeared at venues such as The Butterfly Club and The Motley Bauhaus, shouting awful poetry and giving unsolicited life advice to comedy audiences as they laugh along, mildly terrified but nevertheless enabling his grandiose mediocrity.
A show for poetry lovers and haters alike.

Event Details
A live jazz heist where the musicians and audience are all in on it together.
A Melbourne jazz band is bringing Vice City to life where the band and audience are both in on the grand theft experience. Jazz Theft Auto blends the iconic Grand Theft Auto soundtrack with commentary on Vice City’s morally anarchic underworld.
JTA prompts you to consider: “How can modern content be original when everything has already been stolen?” and welcomes you to a unique and interactive jazz-video game fantasy.
Content warnings: sustained loud music, audience interaction including temporary removal of personal items (all returned), mild coarse language, themes of economic inequality. Opt out available at the door.–

Presenting Artist or Company
Alec is a Melbourne-based multidisciplinary artist working at the intersection of jazz events, interactive performance and video game possibility. Jazz Theft Auto is the first in a series of musical iterations. For him, the ears are the way in to the heart, and violent video games are the way to a berserk and vivid theatre worth exploring.

German producer Marten Hørger follows, bringing more than 150 million global streams, major festival credits including Tomorrowland and EDC, and collaborations with artists including David Guetta, Alesso and Tchami.
Matroda has become one of the defining names in contemporary Tech House, with his signature matrodasound, Terminal Underground label and major festival appearances establishing a global following.
MALAA, recognised for his trademark masked identity and dark, bass-heavy sound, has built a cult following through releases on Tchami’s Confession label and performances at major international dance festivals.
