THE HACKKETS
The Hackkets are a band made up of members with and without disability and are part of the JOLT Arts community. Having been incubated by Footscray Arts Centre for 25 years, The Hackkets originally focused on covers, immersing themselves in universal classic hits that win over even the most hardened in-car sing-along scrooge. Since 2011, they have channelled their love of such classics into their own songs.
VICTORIA ROCKCHICK – VOICE/KEYS
STUART FLENLEY – VOICE/GUITAR
ANDREW PAGANELLA – DRUMS
PETER TOLHURST – VOICE/GUITAR
DAVE BROWN
Dave Brown has been involved in the Melbourne avant-garde, art rock/punk rock scene since the mid-seventies. The focus of his solo project “candlesnuffer” has increasingly centred on the development of composing techniques that meld opposing streams like conventional electroacoustic methods with noise and rock, and also the development of a vocabulary of tiny acoustic sounds enlarged outside their normal context. He has continued to develop a vocabulary that runs the gamut from rock bassist through experimental guitarist to sound artist, and has completed a PhD project researching the use of electroacoustic compositions in a public hospital Emergency Department.
