Fabulous Contraption + Black Owl Quartet

Canberra gets an adventurous midweek double-bill on Tuesday 28 January as The Pot Belly hosts a night of genre-hopping instrumental music.

Fabulous Contraption deliver their charged blend of jazz harmony, prog-metal twists and open-ended improvisation, shifting between tightly wound precision and explosive chaos.
Balancing the night, The Black Owl Quartet bring driving gypsy swing rhythms, virtuosic acoustic playing and old-world flair — all fire, finesse and infectious groove.

Two very different approaches to instrumental music, sharing a love of risk, craft and momentum.
Music from 7pm.
$10 at the door.
18+ unless accompanied by a legal guardian.
