In hibernation for twelve years, a spectacular duo featuring one of the People's Republic's favourite artists will return to light up The Red House and our new piano next month. Don't miss this unique chance to catch the power of this stunning act in an exclusive Sydney show...
PIVIXKI
Anthony Pateras [piano/electronics]
Max Kohane [drums]
NOTE EARLIER TIME
SUNDAY September 15th
at 6.30 p.m. [doors at 6]
The duo known as PIVIXKI are a unique combination of two distinct talents: Anthony Pateras (piano/electronics) & Max Kohane (drums).
Anthony Pateras has worked within composition, improvisation, electronics, avant-rock & film soundtrack, composed for major orchestras, played with a multitude of collaborators, and performed in everything from seedy dives to concert halls the world over,
Max Kohane (Internal Rot / Faceless Burial / Kissland) has been playing in bands since he was 12 and touring since he was 16. He's infamous for his dynamic, intensely fast and technical drumming style and has earned a reputation as perhaps the best skin-hitter in Australia's hardcore/punk scene.
The beauty of PIVIXKI lies in the clash of these two musical cultures, although the willing experimentation of Pateras & Kohane proves that there is really no clash at all. Nominally a piano/drums duo, the band synthesises genres like grindcore, psychoacoustics, hip-hop, thrash & free jazz into ferocious, high-energy songs driven by intense levels of fun & concentration.
Having toured extensively throughout Europe & US/Canada 2009-2011, the band took a hiatus when Pateras moved to Europe in 2012. But the duo are reuniting in 2024 for three special shows in September - their first in 12 years!!!
A new album is in the works, too….
