About the event

<p><span style="font-size: 12px; color: rgb(184, 49, 47);"><strong>All shows at Northcote Theatre are standing room unless otherwise specified<br>All shows at Northcote Theatre are licensed and strictly 18+</strong></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><em>WavyLand presents</em><br><strong><span style="font-size: 24px;">CURRENT JOYS</span><br>(USA)</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;">Since 2013 Current Joys&rsquo; output has been prolific. Within six months of beginning the project, Current Joys had already released its debut, Wild Heart; by 2018, the sixth Current Joys full length and visual album, A Different Age, was out. Each piece of Current Joys&rsquo; early discography is wholly built and envisioned by Rattigan, self recorded and quickly released, quivering with a lonely intensity.</p><p style="text-align: center;">In his later works, Rattigan&rsquo;s songwriting/recording approaches have continued to change and evolve. From Voyager with it&rsquo;s bristling, sentimental rock &lsquo;n&rsquo; roll cacophony overlaid with a soundtrack orchestra to LOVE + POP&rsquo;s aggressive, deconstructed production, house music influence, and even a guest appearance from Lil Yachty. On his latest album, East My Love, Rattigan turns inward using country music and transcendental folk to quell his own personal struggles.</p><p style="text-align: center;">All the while, Current Joys&rsquo; profile quickly and quietly ascended, selling out tour after tour at venues like LA&rsquo;s The Wiltern, Paris&rsquo; Trabendo and Sydney&rsquo;s The Factory, simultaneously amassing over a billion combined streams and a dedicated following.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Current Joys is held together by the fervor of Rattigan&rsquo;s creative process. He believes in the premonitory power of music, regardless of genre and he latches onto the song ideas that strike him in the moment, propelled by an abstract existentialism or burst of feeling more than anything else.<br><br><span class="fr-video fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe src="" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0"></iframe></span></p>
