Tash Sultana Launches Unique In-Store Gig Series for Youth Housing Aid
Tash Sultana Launches Store Sessions at HoMie
Tash Sultana has officially kicked off the Store Sessions, an exciting new gig series at HoMie that aims to support youth housing and community initiatives. This unique event took place at the HoMie flagship store located in Fitzroy, marking Sultana’s return to performing in Australia as they gear up for an extensive national tour in October.
Upcoming Live Events
This inaugural session is just the beginning. Following Sultana’s performance, audiences can look forward to gigs from Bad//Dreems and the local band Big Words, set to be released every three weeks. This innovative initiative by HoMie transforms their retail space into a vibrant performance venue, blending the worlds of streetwear and community engagement.
Artists’ Support for the Cause
The mission resonates profoundly with the participating artists. Sultana expressed their enthusiasm, stating, “I’ve followed HoMie’s journey for a while and love what they represent. Being involved from a music standpoint feels perfect. These store sessions are a fantastic concept, and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.”
Similarly, Alex Cameron from Bad//Dreems shared his excitement: “We’ve admired the work HoMie has been doing for quite some time and are eager to perform!”
A Vision for the Future
Marcus Crook, one of HoMie’s co-founders, envisions Store Sessions becoming a staple event, transforming the store into a touring venue for diverse artists from various genres. He elaborated on the initiative’s intent by saying, “Store Sessions is about fostering a creative space where both emerging talent and globally recognized names can connect with audiences in a new and meaningful way.”
“It’s live, it’s intimate, and it ties into our mission at HoMie. Each session not only showcases music but also supports our efforts and tightens our community bonds through creativity.”
With such a bold vision, it begs the question: How will these store sessions impact the local music scene and community initiatives moving forward?
