The Lick team proudly presents Raising Hope 2 – Saturday 6th August

The Lick team proudly presents ‘Raising Hope’, a regular bi-monthly fundraiser event aiming to raise funds for chosen organizations around the world.

Brought to you by the Lick team and Lovertits, once again we are coming together and donating all of our time in putting this second event on featuring all of your favourite Lick DJ’s – Nugget, Miss Beats, Virginia Le, Catriona Constance vs. Melly Dee.

The previous Raising Hope in June 2011 raised just under $3000 for the Japan Tsunami & NZ Earthquake Red Cross appeals. Let’s come together again and raise money for a good cause to two great organizations within our GLBTIQ community.

We are back for our second round and this time supporting JOY 94.9 FM, Australia’s first and only gay & lesbian radio station, along with the {also} foundation, Victoria’s largest gay and lesbian community organisation.

So come and join us for a night of dance, girls, music, jelly shots and more girls.

Tickets are available online via www.lickmelbourne.com.au or on the door.

Every ticket purchased online via the Lick Melbourne website will receive some free Lick merchandise goodies in the mail :)

The join us for a mahoosive afterparty; which just happens to be Atomic Betsy’s 1st Birthday party. It’s gonna be a full on night of girls, guitars, drinks promos and gettin’ yo dance ON!

:::HERE ARE THE BAND DEETS:::

ELOISE BATES (Melbourne)
Since the age of 8, she has been writing her own lyrics, and constructing melodies of grunge rock-pop that captivates the soul, tug at the heart or rip at the essence of raw rock and roll. Her music video for ‘Killing Every Ounce’ was a hit with the use of medieval meets hidden modern day scenery. A song about a girl who was eager to be with her, and Eloise Bates warning her that although their time together may be exceptional, that it’s unlikely to last singing ‘Tell me if you want this, and I’ll call the coroner and apologies in advance notification for killing every ounce of you’. Her songs like ‘Made of Numb’ and ‘Eviscerated’ are some of her hard hitting hits about relationships and the struggles with emotions and love. With no fear to write about sex, drugs and rock and roll, she exposes herself in strong manner using the lyrics of a poet and the growl of grunge coated by the delectable coating of rock-pop. Her EP ‘Take Your Shhh Back’ is to be coming soon.

BO BANTA (Sydney)
Bo Banta know how to cook up a delightful storm on stage with sweet delectable harmonies, tender folk melodies and quirky lyrics that ease the mind into colourful meanderings. With two gorgeous voices, guitar, ukelele, and glockenspiel they have been described as the “Folk/punk version of Lily Allen”.
This stunning new Sydney duet were finalists in the APRA endorsed “Sydney Songsalive Comp” in December 2010 and runners up in the annual Viking Beer Band Competition. They’ve dazzled audiences at The Sandringham Hotel, The Roxbury, Monkey Bar and Lizottes and supported the likes of the legendary Mr Percival, The Little Stevies (Melb), Genevieve Chadwick (Sth Coast NSW) and Jess Harlen (Melb/NZ).

ATOMIC BETSY: THE GIRRRL ROCK EDITION

SATURDAY 2ND OCTOBER

FEATURING:

MANNEQUIN ALLEY (live set)

LOVE THE RUNAWAYS? LOVE THE DONNAS? LIKE LADIES WITH GUITARS?

Three chicks who rock out, all bullsh*t barred.

Josie on drums: coming all the way from Buckinghamshire England, she came to Melbourne last year and played with a cover band until she was kidnapped by the other members of Domino earlier this year.
Riley on bass: Originally from Liverpool she migrated to South Australia only to eventually move to Melbourne, Rock Capital, specifically to pursue music.
Estelle on guitar: Our native Melbournian, born and bred under Melbourne’s temperamental skies, she walked on her first stage at four and hasn’t wanted to leave it ever since.

We play a mixture of rock and roll, with influences coming from a lot of classic rock along with some modern-day influences.
We’re on a mission to bring the “live for rock” attitude back and put real female musicians on stage.

Check out http://www.myspace.com/mannequinalley to hear some of their older demo’s.
