The BUgette is a fresh new venture from Brisbane Unplugged Gigs Inc, created to champion acoustic-style live music and further connect with acoutic music lovers and the younger Bohemian crowd in West End. We're all about growing Brisbane’s underground acoustic scene and creating a safe, vibrant space where creatives can connect, celebrate each other, and maybe even jump into a session or two.
THE FORMAT
The format for the evening is very similiar to The BUg (New Farm):
6.30pm - doors open (bar is actually open from 4pm)
7pm - up to 3 blackboard acts - 10 minutes max, 2 songs max. See the MC for a spot.
7.45pm - first featured act
8.45pm - second featured act
Hosts: Kristy and Elyse from The Salty Sirens
THE VENUE
The venue is The End Bar, 73 Vulture Street, West End - gig home of The Salty Sirens. They will also be the hosts generally for the evenings.
The End is a laid-back bar in West End, known for its craft beers and cocktails. Its industrial-chic vibe is softened by lush greenery, vintage leather couches, a layered timber bar, and quirky nods to its past life.
THE ACTS
Sixth of the Sun:
Introducing Rosa Mack: powerhouse vocalist and veteran of impassioned performances, this Meanjin/Brisbane-based soultress takes to the stage with her rock/soul collective, captivating audiences with old school funk flavour and confident style.
