SATURDAY 5TH SEPTEMBER!!! Fresh off a huge run of UK & European shows, a Top 3 ARIA-charting album, and landing the coveted support slot for AC/DC, Southern River Band are proving exactly why they're one of Australia's most talked-about live acts. Dubbed "a proper f**king rock band" by The Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins, these Perth legends have built a reputation the old-fashioned way... with sweat-soaked performances, blistering guitars, unforgettable hooks and zero interest in following the rules. Some bands play gigs. Southern River Band start conversations you'll still be having at breakfast. If you caught them at The Roey last year, you already know what's coming. If you missed it... here's your second chance. Saturday 5th September. 18+ Event. Doors open 8pm. Rock'n'roll isn't dead...it's just making another stop in Broome. TICKETS ON SALE NOW

A Solo Exhibition of recent printmaking by Vivienne McDermott at Redbill Studio Gallery. OPENING NIGHT 4th September, 5:30PM - 7:30PM. Exhibition Runs 5th-17th September 2026. Derived from the landscape, this body of work reflects on our relationship with the natural world and the importance of caring for Country. Through fundamental dualities—tradition and progress, nature and nurture, order and chaos, it explores the tensions and complexities of contemporary life. Working across monotype, silkscreen, and reduction linoprint techniques, McDermott employs colour intuitively to create depth, movement, and complexity within each work. The resulting prints invite viewers into dynamic visual spaces where place, time, movement, and feeling coexist, encouraging a deeper consideration of our connection to the environment and our responsibility as custodians of the world around us. All Welcome. RSVP is encouraged for opening night, but not necessary to [email protected]. Gallery Opening Hours: Monday - Saturday, 10:30am - 2pm. Located in the gardens near Matso's Brewery.
