Their vocals were loud and retained the clarity to understand him throughout – usually a hard job to compete with when playing such an instrument- and effect-heavy style such as thrash-pop.

High Risk High Rewards and Are You Safe bring things to a thundering close, but an impromptu round of Happy Birthday, for guitarist Ash Pegram, caps the night off with smiles all around.

After huge applause he finished the set off with a sparse piano cover of Steve Winwood’s Higher Love, returning for an encore with an acoustic performance of And If My Heart Should Somehow Stop and then a sweet band arrangement of If I Had A Boat.

Combined with the most gorgeous harmonies you’re likely to hear anywhere, funky rhythm and horn sections that will blow your mind, Stratosfunk is one of the best kept live musical secrets in Perth.
