Perth Producer Ta-Ku Opens Barbershop

Get ya beard trimmed for 20 bucks

Perth beat maestro Ta-ku has added another string to his burgeoning bow – business owner.

The producer has revealed he's opened his own barbershop in his home city, called Westons Barbershop & Shave Parlour.

“My passion for the barber industry has never been a secret. The barbers & barbershops here in my hometown have encouraged and shaped my devotion to the craft, so I'll be forever grateful,” the artist, real name Regan Matthews wrote in a post on his Facebook.

The shop will officially open in Northbridge on Thursday 10 July and we've sussed out its official website – just so all you Chet Faker look-alikes know, to keep that beard looking schmick, it'll cost you $20. Bookings can be made now through the website.

Ta-ku will perform at Listen Out festival this September/October – check out theGuide or our The Music App for more info.
